Transcript

00:00:00.000 When I found out my friend got a great deal on a wool coat from Winners,
00:00:03.760 I started wondering,
00:00:05.460 is every fabulous item I see from Winners?
00:00:08.520 Like that woman over there with the designer jeans.
00:00:11.240 Are those from Winners?
00:00:12.760 Ooh, or those beautiful gold earrings.
00:00:15.240 Did she pay full price?
00:00:16.560 Or that leather tote?
00:00:17.580 Or that cashmere sweater?
00:00:18.820 Or those knee-high boots?
00:00:20.260 That dress?
00:00:21.040 That jacket?
00:00:21.720 Those shoes?
00:00:22.380 Is anyone paying full price for anything?
00:00:25.800 Stop wondering.
00:00:26.980 Start winning.
00:00:27.900 Winners.
00:00:28.480 Find fabulous for less.
00:00:30.000 Picture this.
00:00:30.660 You're the main character in a heist movie,
00:00:32.340 except you're not the thief, you're the mark.
00:00:35.000 The crew casing your place isn't wearing ski masks.
00:00:38.300 They're sitting at laptops and sweatpants and slipping,
00:00:40.600 you know, sort of,
00:00:41.820 just slipping all over the internet,
00:00:43.480 scrolling through public property records,
00:00:45.600 and they find your home and they force your signature
00:00:47.740 and they file a transfer before you've even finished breakfast.
00:00:50.800 No alarm goes off, your dog doesn't bark,
00:00:53.320 but on paper, your house now belongs to someone else.
00:00:56.260 I don't think this would be a good movie, by the way,
00:00:58.480 but it is something real that happens to people all the time.
00:01:01.580 And by the time you realize anything has even gone wrong,
00:01:04.460 the equity in your home is gone and your credit is shredded
00:01:07.260 and you're left arguing with a system that assumes the forged documents are real.
00:01:12.460 Home title lock, I kind of flipped the script on this.
00:01:15.380 The moment anything suspicious happens,
00:01:17.780 someone tries to move your title or mess with your ownership,
00:01:20.800 you get alerted and then you have a chance to shut it down
00:01:22.760 before the con is even complete.
00:01:24.080 Burlars have been around for centuries,
00:01:26.280 but the 21st century version doesn't bother with windows or locks.
00:01:29.500 Home title lock, make sure they never get away with it.
00:01:31.920 AI is changing the world and the way crime is committed.
00:01:34.780 Don't let it change the name on your home's title.
00:01:36.840 HomeTitleLock.com, promo code is Blaze.
00:01:39.040 HomeTitleLock.com, promo code Blaze.
00:01:43.500 Hello, America.
00:01:44.680 You know we've been fighting every single day.
00:01:46.420 We push back against the lies, the censorship,
00:01:48.780 the nonsense of the mainstream media that they're trying to feed you.
00:01:52.800 We work tirelessly to bring you the unfiltered truth because you deserve it.
00:01:57.660 But to keep this fight going, we need you.

00:02:03.840 Give us five stars and lead a comment because every single review helps us break through
00:02:08.380 Big Tech's algorithm to reach more Americans who need to hear the truth.
00:02:12.640 This isn't a podcast.
00:02:14.000 This is a movement and you're part of it, a big part of it.
00:02:17.340 So if you believe in what we're doing, you want more people to wake up,
00:02:20.240 help us push this podcast to the top.
00:02:22.580 Rate, review, share.
00:02:24.180 Together, we'll make a difference.
00:02:26.300 And thanks for standing with us.
00:02:27.560 Now let's get to work.
00:02:47.340 Down the road where shadows hide, feel the dark on every side.
00:03:10.300 Stand your ground when times get dark.
00:03:12.720 Got to face the dog and embrace the fire.
00:03:17.380 The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
00:03:21.540 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:03:25.020 Hello, America.
00:03:28.940 We've got a lot to cover.
00:03:30.220 I want to start right away with the power grid and what is going on.
00:03:34.360 And nobody seems to be talking about it in Maryland.
00:03:37.800 The prices of electricity of jack.
00:03:40.240 They're going through rolling blackouts now.
00:03:42.400 I want to give you something from the analysts at Goldman.
00:03:46.680 They have been tracking the power crisis.
00:03:48.620 They sent a new note out on Wednesday that the power market tightening that has been going on
00:03:56.220 is expanding from the three grids that they warned about to all of the regional markets.
00:04:03.020 Let me quote.
00:04:03.560 We find that nine out of 13 U.S. regional power markets have already reached critical tightness this summer,
00:04:10.840 while expecting all but one to reach critical tightness by 2030.
00:04:16.320 For the rest of this summer, we highlight power reliability risks in the mid-Atlantic, the mid-continent,
00:04:22.540 the northeast, and the southeast, Florida and Tennessee.
00:04:26.740 Given both critical tightness and forecasted August heat waves,
00:04:31.580 critical tightness could lead to power price spikes and blackouts with significant social and economic losses.
00:04:41.340 Why aren't we talking about this one?
00:04:44.100 That just came out on Wednesday.
00:04:46.700 We're going to talk to a guy who knows about power and knows about what we're facing
00:04:50.940 and maybe can help us on what has to be done in 60 seconds.
00:04:55.900 First, let me tell you about realestateagentsitrust.com.
00:04:58.880 Realestateagentsitrust, this is my company, and I actually use all the products that I advertise on the show.
00:05:07.720 If I'm endorsing it, it's because I like it and I use it.
00:05:11.300 Realestateagentsitrust is no different.
00:05:14.240 I just moved to Florida.
00:05:17.620 We're on our way to Florida.
00:05:19.100 I'm keeping our business here in Dallas and our main studios,
00:05:23.520 but I'm going to be living in Florida.
00:05:26.040 And I used real estate agents I trust.
00:05:30.220 Lisa True is somebody in the area of Florida where we were looking for a house.
00:05:35.100 And we put her through the ringer.
00:05:36.800 I mean, probably three years of looking and off and on.
00:05:42.040 We finally gave up and she called us, I don't know, a few months later and she said,
00:05:48.820 you know what, I just saw something that I think is exactly what you were looking for.
00:05:54.420 And it was.
00:05:55.740 And we bought that house because she listened.
00:05:59.420 That's the most important thing is you have somebody who can negotiate,
00:06:03.620 somebody who knows the market, somebody who listens to you and then looks for that.
00:06:09.160 It's realestateagentsitrust.com.
00:06:11.540 That's realestateagentsitrust.com.
00:06:16.300 Okay.
00:06:17.260 We have Chris Wright on, U.S. Energy Secretary.
00:06:23.840 We are concerned about our energy.
00:06:28.160 And thank God, Donald Trump, can you imagine how bad this would be if Joe Biden's policies would have continued?
00:06:34.040 Thank God we're doing a lot of really good things.
00:06:36.580 But I wanted to get a sense from Chris on where we are and what he thinks of what's happening in Maryland
00:06:43.940 and the warning that Goldman is giving this week.
00:06:47.880 Chris, welcome to the program.
00:06:49.900 Thanks for having me, Glenn.
00:06:51.400 Yeah, you're hitting a hot topic right away.
00:06:53.860 Okay.
00:06:54.740 So I would assume that you agree with what Goldman said?
00:07:00.560 Oh, absolutely.
00:07:04.240 In fact, we released a report from the department just a few weeks ago.
00:07:08.820 And if you had continued the Biden policies, which are to permit and subsidize energy sources
00:07:15.820 that might be there, might not, and generally aren't there at peak demand,
00:07:20.080 if we had continued those policies, they would have shut down another 100 gigawatts of firm production capacity
00:07:28.520 that's there when you need it.
00:07:30.520 And they had permits to approve and plans to add 22 gigawatts to that.
00:07:36.300 Shut down 100, add 22.
00:07:38.720 So a net loss of 78 gigawatts to an electricity grid that's already tight,
00:07:44.140 that already delivers blackouts at peak demand.
00:07:46.720 They were on a trajectory to increase blackouts by 100-fold by the end of the first Paris term
00:07:54.180 if she had won that election.
00:07:56.120 It is just we were driving over a cliff and they were hitting the accelerator to go faster.
00:08:01.700 You know what really bothered me was the policy that when they shut these plants down,
00:08:07.300 that we would actually pay the power companies to shut these down
00:08:11.940 if they dismantled the coal-fired plants.
00:08:15.700 They actually could get subsidies if they made sure there was no going back into that,
00:08:21.620 which I found terrifying and horribly irresponsible.
00:08:26.600 Glenn, it's just crazy.
00:08:28.660 Like, the environmentalists melted down a few weeks ago
00:08:32.040 when I used my authority at the Department of Energy
00:08:35.080 to stop the closure of a 1.5 gigawatt coal plant in southwestern Michigan.
00:08:40.480 Oh, you're going to impose tax costs on the ratepayers?
00:08:43.880 We don't need that coal plant.
00:08:45.180 It was slated to close.
00:08:46.720 Two days later, there was a blackout in MISO, the Midwestern Independent System Operator.
00:08:53.580 Two days later, that plant was running at full capacity.
00:08:58.640 It would have been massively worse.
00:09:00.840 Prices would have been massively higher.
00:09:02.920 You just talked about Baltimore.
00:09:04.240 We also stopped the closure of a very old power plant in Baltimore,
00:09:08.980 but a critical power plant to keep the lights on at peak demand
00:09:12.760 that's also running at full capacity as we speak today
00:09:15.840 and has for much of the last few weeks.
00:09:18.140 Oh, no, we don't need it.
00:09:19.580 We're going to close it.
00:09:21.700 It's just when politics gets in the middle of energy,
00:09:25.280 it truly impacts people's lives.
00:09:27.480 It leads to blackouts, biking costs.
00:09:30.460 You know, we had 30% rise in power prices during just four years of President Joe Biden,
00:09:36.800 and now we're going to launch the AI race against China,
00:09:40.580 and we're going to have our lights going off without data centers,
00:09:43.500 without any new industry in our country.
00:09:45.700 Just thank God the American people overwhelmingly elected President Trump.
00:09:50.500 We brought common sense back.
00:09:52.260 We're swimming seven days a week to try to fix the train wreck they left us.
00:09:57.060 So it's exciting.
00:09:57.880 It's more stressful than I'd like.
00:09:59.320 But we are, I can assure you, we are headed in the right direction now.
00:10:03.500 So, you know, what really bothers me is we have heard how dangerous nuclear power is
00:10:09.260 and how we can't use that, even though that solves the global warming thing.
00:10:13.200 We've never been able to have that.
00:10:15.240 We have to reduce our power usage, you know, go back to the good old days
00:10:19.280 and, I don't know, medieval times.
00:10:21.120 But now that AI is here, now that the big tech companies step up and say,
00:10:28.320 no, no, no, we have to have power for AI,
00:10:31.060 now all of those rules are out the window,
00:10:33.920 which bothers me so much because it is as if the left and the power structures
00:10:40.480 don't really care about the average person and them having power.
00:10:46.460 They care about these big corporations and AI being able to have compute power,
00:10:53.600 but not the average person.
00:10:55.740 And it's disgusting.
00:10:58.200 It's really disgusting.
00:11:00.560 I think that's right, Glenn.
00:11:02.700 It also shows that they never really cared about incremental changes in greenhouse gas emissions.
00:11:09.000 The climate change thing is mostly a clamor for power.
00:11:12.960 However, we're going to decide the way the world works and make rules for you
00:11:18.020 because you stupid rubes out there in America, you can't make your own decisions.
00:11:22.520 We must make them for you.
00:11:24.060 But, yes, they were never about a rational approach to reduce greenhouse gases.
00:11:28.440 They don't even know that much about greenhouse gas emissions.
00:11:31.260 As you said, they hated nuclear then.
00:11:33.480 Now they see we're on a train wreck.
00:11:35.760 They don't want to admit their climate alarmism was wrong and wildly exaggerated.
00:11:40.780 So now, oh, nuclear power is okay because we need these data centers.
00:11:46.240 These big companies need power.
00:11:48.060 It's not just those crazy rubes in middle America like you and I.
00:11:53.540 So, you know, in your report, you said, you know,
00:11:56.840 we will increase blackouts by 100 times in the next five years
00:12:00.660 if we don't keep more baseload power online.
00:12:02.680 How rapidly are we going to see these nuclear power plants, et cetera, et cetera, being built?
00:12:09.960 And is it only to serve those server farms?
00:12:13.300 Or are we going to redo the American power grid itself?
00:12:20.680 It will be across the grid.
00:12:24.140 So it is an exciting development, Glenn, but it's a government.
00:12:28.100 It's this overweening, fear-mongering government that actually smothered
00:12:32.440 and killed nuclear industry for most of the last four decades.
00:12:36.760 So since it's been smothered for so long, it'll take time to get that ball really moving.
00:12:42.620 We'll have an already closed nuclear power plant back open in Michigan later this year,
00:12:48.780 January, hopefully at the latest.
00:12:51.020 So there's some developments that will happen in the next few months,
00:12:54.220 but most of it's going to take a few years.
00:12:56.700 Really, what's going to feed the data centers that are going to be built
00:13:00.080 and the re-industrialization of our country
00:13:02.020 and keep the lights on and our air conditioning on in the summertime,
00:13:06.020 most of that is going to come from stopping the closure of the coal plant.
00:13:10.680 Right.
00:13:11.160 That the Biden administration and Obama administration wanted to shrink
00:13:15.000 our ability to generate electricity.
00:13:16.880 And it's going to come from the expansion and rapid construction
00:13:20.700 of new natural gas-burning power plants.
00:13:23.840 Natural gas is by far our biggest source of electricity.
00:13:27.040 It's by far the lowest-cost source of new electricity.
00:13:31.580 So we are doing everything we can to permit,
00:13:34.500 allow the construction of natural gas plants as fast as possible
00:13:37.700 and removing these ridiculous requirements.
00:13:41.220 That, well, if you spend a billion dollars to build a new power plant
00:13:44.560 within six or seven or eight years, you're going to have to capture
00:13:47.760 all the carbon dioxide emissions and inject them underground,
00:13:51.380 no matter how much it costs, no matter how much it burdens our power sector.
00:13:55.940 The direction they were in just didn't care about American people
00:13:59.240 or American businesses.
00:14:02.020 How long before we see these things?
00:14:05.020 China is building the speed of at least one coal-fired power plant a week.
00:14:13.940 They are building nuclear plants.
00:14:15.780 They are on an energy surge right now.
00:14:19.680 They know what's coming.
00:14:22.420 When should we see this actually starting to happen,
00:14:26.560 and how long before power prices come down?
00:14:31.700 Oh, man, that is the big question.
00:14:34.920 President Trump asked me that every single day.
00:14:37.560 Every single day.
00:14:38.760 Let's get oil prices down.
00:14:39.740 Let's get gas prices down.
00:14:40.940 Let's get electricity prices down.
00:14:42.940 And it takes a while to build infrastructure.
00:14:46.000 Fortunately, quickly, we can stop the closure of coal plants
00:14:49.720 that still have lots of lifetime left.
00:14:51.600 We've already done that.
00:14:53.020 That's why we don't have much worse blackouts already today.
00:14:56.560 We do have new gas plants coming on this year,
00:14:59.460 a lot more coming on next year.
00:15:01.960 We'll have nuclear plants on later this term.
00:15:04.700 We'll have a whole bunch of them under construction.
00:15:08.180 But yet, to turn the giant, you know, aircraft carrier
00:15:11.540 that is the electricity grid, that's going to take a few years.
00:15:15.560 But hopefully, we can stop the huge rise in prices.
00:15:19.720 We can build the capacity so the United States can keep our lead
00:15:24.460 on artificial intelligence over China.
00:15:26.560 We get behind China, and they control AI.
00:15:29.680 Our national security is at risk.
00:15:31.480 Yeah, I know.
00:15:31.980 So the whole administration is seven days a week working on this effort.
00:15:37.440 You will see dramatically fewer blackouts this summer
00:15:40.560 than you would have had the election gone the other way.
00:15:43.120 And I think we'll be in a little bit better situation next summer.
00:15:47.240 And somewhere in between there this winter.
00:15:49.560 We're rapidly swimming the right way.
00:15:51.640 I wish I could say power prices are going down 20% next year,
00:15:56.020 but it's simply not possible to do that in 12 months.
00:15:59.980 But I will tell you, President Trump is seven days a week doing everything he can
00:16:04.520 towards that goal.
00:16:05.520 What regions are the worst in the country, as far as stability and prices?
00:16:13.980 The Midwest, you know, where that Michigan coal plant was kept open,
00:16:20.300 where that nuclear power plant will reopen later that year.
00:16:23.740 The Midwest independent system operator, that's our tightest region.
00:16:27.420 The southeast and PJM, where Washington, D.C. is in the mid-Atlantic states,
00:16:33.340 they're rapidly getting tighter as well.
00:16:35.840 Everything in the interconnection queue that was new to come on is a wind or solar project.
00:16:41.540 Well, peak demand in the wintertime is when it's dark out.
00:16:44.180 And in summertime, it's when it's really hot,
00:16:46.180 and you're in a high-pressure system, and the wind doesn't blow.
00:16:48.800 Those things don't help to meet peak demand.
00:16:51.540 They just provide electricity.
00:16:53.040 Well, you don't know wind, but at some points in time,
00:16:55.140 that's not very helpful for an electricity grid.
00:16:58.440 But we're going to stop the closure of the firm capacity,
00:17:00.960 and we're going to do everything we can.
00:17:03.180 We are permitting and approving plants every week,
00:17:06.040 new construction, new plants that will get built,
00:17:09.020 and that will be here to provide relief to Americans in the next 12 to 24 months.
00:17:13.120 And the most stable region?
00:17:17.880 The most stable region actually is Texas,
00:17:20.760 which is by far the biggest electricity grid.
00:17:23.920 They produce more than twice as much electricity as California,
00:17:27.380 and just a little bit less nonsense in Texas.
00:17:31.580 They still went crazy on the wind subs.
00:17:33.540 Yeah, they did.
00:17:34.120 They still have more expensive and less stable grid than they had 10 years ago,
00:17:38.320 but they also have the mindset and the regulatory regime to fix their problem.
00:17:43.500 Texas is rapidly growing its firm capacity,
00:17:46.040 and they're going to skate out of this crisis probably a little faster
00:17:49.700 than the more Biden-influenced rest of the country.
00:17:54.760 I can't thank you enough for everything you guys are doing.
00:17:57.480 I'm amazed at how rapidly you guys have turned things around.
00:18:02.740 I'm thrilled at the work you're all doing.
00:18:06.080 And, Chris, you're really leading us in energy, and I appreciate that.
00:18:09.280 Thank you.
00:18:10.680 Appreciate you, Glenn.
00:18:11.640 I appreciate all your viewers.
00:18:13.060 We're doing everything we can.
00:18:14.940 We think about American people.
00:18:16.520 That's the only agenda we have.
00:18:18.240 Thank you so much, Chris.
00:18:20.700 That's our U.S. Energy Secretary, Chris Wright.
00:18:23.660 I mean, you want to talk about it.
00:18:25.440 We remember you were saying the other day, not only do we have competent people,
00:18:28.920 we have people who communicate.
00:18:31.260 That was a good communicator.
00:18:33.440 That was somebody who I think spoke right directly, at least to me,
00:18:37.900 it felt like he was speaking to me, and I felt like they at least were saying,
00:18:42.760 I think he really meant it, but I think at least he was saying,
00:18:45.420 we care about the average person.
00:18:48.580 That's what we're focused on, is the average person.
00:18:50.920 And you just don't hear that from government very often.
00:18:54.040 What about the kings and queens of nations, like Somalia, for example?
00:19:02.380 Yeah, right.
00:19:02.940 Wait, where's Guatemala in this?
00:19:05.620 He didn't even mention Guatemala.
00:19:07.340 He didn't even care about Guatemala.
00:19:09.040 No.
00:19:09.560 No, he was like, ah, we care about America and Americans.
00:19:12.720 Wow.
00:19:13.080 Okay, if that's what you want to do, Chris.
00:19:14.960 All right, let me tell you about Rough Greens.
00:19:16.700 Life is insanely busy.
00:19:19.220 You barely have time to blink between work and family and errands
00:19:22.100 and all the little fires that pop up all day long.
00:19:24.960 One of the things on your list, feeding your dog, is actually a really big deal
00:19:28.760 because of what you put in that bowl day after day,
00:19:31.300 and it's what powers their whole life.
00:19:33.860 Now, here's the hard truth.
00:19:34.900 Most dog food, even the good brands, is cooked at such a high temperature
00:19:38.480 that it loses a lot of the nutrients that your dog needs.
00:19:41.560 It fills their belly, yes, but it doesn't nourish them.
00:19:45.000 That's where Rough Greens comes in.
00:19:46.620 It's a nutritional supplement that you sprinkle right on top of their regular food,
00:19:50.520 and it's packed with vitamins, minerals, probiotics, and enzymes
00:19:53.380 that help with the energy, the digestion, joint health, and so much more.
00:19:58.660 It turns just another day's meal into real nutrition.

00:20:30.320 Let me take a 10-second break.
00:20:31.780 You know, we were so close to a complete and total meltdown and breakdown.
00:20:50.060 I think we were right about saying,
00:20:52.560 if this went on another four years, we would not make it.
00:20:57.220 But my problem is, is I don't know if the American people on the left
00:21:04.060 really understand how close we were.
00:21:09.540 You know what I mean?
00:21:10.380 We're coming in, and we're solving the energy problems.
00:21:13.860 And nobody had to pay for that energy problem.
00:21:17.840 I mean, Baltimore is paying a little bit.
00:21:20.400 Maryland is paying with the rolling blackouts.
00:21:22.560 California is paying a very high price.
00:21:24.140 But they don't even get it at that price.
00:21:26.860 They still vote the same way.
00:21:30.560 I mean, it's nuts.
00:21:33.240 And so I wonder, we were so close to the edge,
00:21:36.760 but I wonder how many people noticed we were at the edge.
00:21:41.100 Because, you know, we're turning things around now in epic ways.
00:21:46.440 Epic ways.
00:21:48.060 Yeah, there's some really good things going on.
00:21:50.000 And, you know, we also have some really big challenges.
00:21:53.900 And it's tough.
00:21:55.280 I mean, I sympathize with some of these guys trying to do this work.
00:21:58.380 Because there's a lot of stuff built up over a long period of time
00:22:02.800 you have to unwind to get to these kind of wonderful advances you'd think about.
00:22:08.060 I mean, there's all sorts of really,
00:22:09.120 we didn't get a chance to get into this,
00:22:10.380 but there's really amazing developments technologically in the nuclear field.
00:22:15.720 Oh, my gosh.
00:22:16.320 These small reactors.
00:22:18.080 Teeny.
00:22:18.220 I mean, they're incredible.
00:22:19.860 And they're actually starting to happen.
00:22:22.000 They're starting to be built.
00:22:23.920 We're beyond the period of, like, can we do this?
00:22:26.600 We're now to the point where we can do it.
00:22:28.200 It's just a matter of getting through all that stuff.
00:22:30.060 But, like, to even get to the point where you're entertaining that,
00:22:32.780 you have to unwind this,
00:22:34.020 hey, we should be able to do the things that we were doing in the 70s.
00:22:36.940 Yes, I know.
00:22:37.400 You know, it's like, that's a long road.
00:22:39.280 And I don't know, is four years even enough to do it?
00:22:41.300 I don't know.
00:22:41.500 It is for nuclear.
00:22:42.340 The president said he is taking all, he told Chris,
00:22:45.940 take all of the regulations off, you know, except for the, you know, real safety.
00:22:50.560 Yeah, let's not get Montgomery Burns all over the place.
00:22:53.400 Yes, yes, yes.
00:22:54.240 But it's these small nuclear power plants, which are completely different.
00:22:59.160 There's no China syndrome possibility.
00:23:01.480 All of that stuff is over.
00:23:03.420 It's in the past.
00:23:05.120 And he has taken the regulations off, the stupid regulations off,
00:23:10.900 to make sure that we can start building these plants as soon as possible.
00:23:15.620 Again, my concern is, and I'm grossed out by a lot of news lately,
00:23:20.860 but this is one of them that grosses me out,
00:23:22.920 is the fact that, again, everybody changed on power all of a sudden.
00:23:28.740 We didn't even have a discussion about nuclear power.
00:23:32.580 We didn't even have a discussion.
00:23:33.780 All of a sudden, it was like, you know what?
00:23:34.800 Of course, we all agree on that.
00:23:36.120 Of course we do.
00:23:36.900 We're going to build nuclear power plants.
00:23:38.700 Wait a minute.
00:23:39.300 When did that change?
00:23:40.540 Oh, when you, the big, big people, when you needed power, then it was okay.
00:23:49.760 That is a disturbing thing to find out about your country.
00:23:58.740 This is Glenn Beck.
00:24:02.580 All right, let me talk to you a little bit about the Tunnel Towers Foundation.
00:24:05.300 Some people leave a legacy in words, quotes on a page, or speeches in history books.
00:24:09.740 But the legacy of a first responder or a soldier is written in something much, much greater.
00:24:15.200 It's in the lives they touched and the sacrifices they made
00:24:17.960 and the promise that their families will never be forgotten.
00:24:21.700 When a hero falls in the line of duty, the loss isn't just a uniform.
00:24:25.440 It's a husband, a wife, a parent, a friend.
00:24:28.340 And while the headlines move on, the empty chair at the dinner table, that remains.
00:24:33.360 The Tunnel to Towers Foundation steps into that silence.
00:24:36.200 They pay off mortgages for the families of fallen first responders and military members.
00:24:40.360 They build specially adapted smart homes for our most severely injured veterans.
00:24:45.060 They do it quietly, consistently, and with the kind of love that says,
00:24:48.740 you're not alone and you never will be.
00:24:51.200 It's not just a charity.
00:24:52.240 It's keeping a promise, the same promise that those heroes live by.
00:24:56.700 Help them do it.
00:24:57.880 Never forget the sacrifices of our country's greatest heroes.
00:25:01.140 Will you donate $11 a month to Tunnel to Towers at T2T.org?
00:25:05.120 I think this is a great charity.
00:25:07.360 T2T.org.
00:25:09.040 Let's remember those who have sacrificed almost everything or everything for us.

00:25:24.420 Welcome to the Glenbeck program.
00:25:43.060 Well, there's some more breaking news, and it just doesn't get better for the deep state.
00:25:48.320 Just the News has come out with an FBI timeline.
00:25:54.400 It's a bombshell release that just came out that exposes political interference in the Clinton corruption probe.
00:26:02.060 No.
00:26:02.580 We have a guy who has written the book literally on the Clinton cache, Peter Schweitzer, who is with us, to kind of tell us what this means, what is in the memo, and are we moving closer to coming to the truth about the corruption of the Clinton Foundation?
00:26:23.720 Peter, welcome to the program.
00:26:25.800 Hey, Glen.
00:26:26.380 Always great to be with you.
00:26:27.500 Thanks for having me.
00:26:28.300 This one must make you feel good.
00:26:30.780 I mean, finally, some proof, and you're vindicated.
00:26:35.740 Well, you know, it's funny, Glen, and I can talk about this openly now because the New York Times last year outed me as working as a confidential informant with the FBI.
00:26:48.220 What that really means is I shared information with them.
00:26:50.540 I didn't get paid, but as we did research, we shared it.
00:26:53.380 And we got involved with the FBI back in 2015 when Clinton Cash came out.
00:26:58.900 They approached us.
00:27:00.540 And at one point, there were four FBI field offices.
00:27:04.920 So, in other words, these are the agents in the field, Little Rock, Arkansas, Washington, D.C., New York, and also, interestingly, the FBI extension office in Nigeria.
00:27:17.520 Because, remember, with the Clintons, it was global corruption, and they actually had, in Nigeria, an audio tape of a very corrupt oligarch bragging on a phone conversation about how he had donated to the Clinton Foundation and gotten favors in return.
00:27:32.840 So, this was an investigation.
00:27:36.160 I mean, Clinton Cash was part of it.
00:27:37.560 It certainly wasn't the only part of it.
00:27:40.160 But the field offices were raring to go.
00:27:43.880 And they were investigating.
00:27:45.340 They were talking to people.
00:27:46.660 They were gathering information.
00:27:48.020 And immediately, FBI headquarters basically said, hey, you know, we don't want you doing this.
00:27:54.380 And now what you have with the great reporting of John Solomon and Just the News is Sally Yates, Department of Justice official, telling them a year or so later, shut this down.
00:28:06.780 You are not to look at this anymore.
00:28:09.140 And that, of course, is highly, highly, highly unusual, because field offices are supposed to organically follow leads and investigate.
00:28:19.960 And to have the headquarters shut down an investigation on somebody as important as the Clintons, you know, speaks, of course, of the problems of the deep state that you've highlighted for so many years.
00:28:30.840 Yeah, the deep state is really becoming clear right now.
00:28:34.600 I did a show last night, Peter, where you can now see the outlines and you can see where they learned it and how they perfected it, you know, beginning in 2020.
00:28:45.140 And it's the same group of people, you know.
00:28:47.900 It's kind of like when we were doing the progressive thing from the 60s.
00:28:51.020 You'd see, wait a minute, it's just one group of people.
00:28:53.460 It's just like, you know, I don't know, 20 to 100, maybe 200 people.
00:28:57.500 But it's the same ones.
00:28:58.760 They're always there at the scene of the crime.
00:29:02.020 Sally Yates, I remember that name because I think Donald Trump, that was one of the first controversies he had.
00:29:08.180 He fired her for some reason.
00:29:09.740 Do you remember why?
00:29:11.800 Yes, I believe it was because of things that were being extracted at the Department of Justice.
00:29:19.240 And, yeah, she's one of these figures that you're talking about there.
00:29:22.760 That's part of the you would call the permanent apparatus in Washington, D.C.
00:29:27.400 And what they do is they serve in senior government positions.
00:29:30.580 They may leave for a while and they'll go and work for a powerful law firm or they'll work for an investment fund or whatever, make a little extra money.
00:29:38.680 Because, of course, government doesn't pay them all of what they want.
00:29:42.200 And then they go back to government.
00:29:43.960 But oftentimes they end up doing favors, of course, for the people who paid them when they were on the outside.
00:29:50.100 And they are invited back into government because they're all kind of involved in this revolving door.
00:29:56.680 And, you know, again, for Yates to take that position to say, essentially, I don't care what you guys are seeing or what you're investigating, shut it down.
00:30:08.440 And, by the way, she felt comfortable doing that.
00:30:10.920 She's not protecting the people in power.
00:30:12.720 She's doing this in 2017 when Donald Trump is in office and which, again, speaks to the fact that for all the rhetoric and the claims from the deep state that Trump somehow politicized the Department of Justice, further proof that he did not, that the permanent state still ran those institutions during his first term.
00:30:34.240 Listen to this. This is a timeline released by the FBI through Just the News.
00:30:39.200 The timeline stated that in July or August 2015, an FBI supervisory special agent at the Washington field office had, quote, a brief discussion, end quote, with a member of the U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Columbia, quote, regarding the Clinton Foundation allegations, which had been focused on by the because of the book Clinton Cash by Peter Schweitzer.
00:31:01.900 At the time, an investigator, whose name remains redacted, was in the process of attempting to predicate an investigation based on the allegations.
00:31:11.980 I mean, what is it like to know that the government was revolving around you and what you had exposed?
00:31:20.240 Well, I tell you, Glenn, I appreciate that.
00:31:22.460 I mean, we always base our information on paper trail, as you know.
00:31:27.580 We don't use anonymous sources.
00:31:28.900 And what happened is we were approached by people at the FBI and they said, hey, we're interested in this.
00:31:35.420 What can you share with us?
00:31:36.380 And we said everything.
00:31:37.660 We kind of pushed all the chips on the table.
00:31:40.800 And so that includes, you know, the timing of financial transactions.
00:31:47.060 A lot of the investigation started as it related to this Uranium One deal.
00:31:52.380 You and I talked about this multiple times in 2015.
00:31:55.060 Yeah. And this is the one where the, you know, the Clintons ended up getting one hundred and forty five million dollars from the Clinton Foundation.
00:32:03.240 They also got speaking fees from these group of investors that Bill Clinton helped arrange the sale of American uranium company to a company that was owned by Canadians.
00:32:15.320 But but by the way, the origin of that company was Russia.
00:32:19.540 So, you know, all sorts of alarm bells were going off on that.
00:32:23.340 But as the FBI investigation continued, they became involved and interested in other areas, the Nigerian investors, for example, because when Hillary Clinton was secretary of state, we got these emails through the Freedom of Information Act.
00:32:40.200 And when they were doing the Haitian Reconstruction after the earthquake, for example, which Hillary Clinton was in charge of, people would send emails to the secretary of state's office saying, we want a contract for Haitian Reconstruction.
00:32:55.620 We are an FOB.
00:32:57.340 And I thought, FOB, what's that?
00:32:59.240 Turns out it was shorthand for friend of Bill.
00:33:02.400 So the investigation began with Uranium One, but it included contracting with the State Department on Haitian Reconstruction, Nigerian deals.
00:33:12.580 There was an Indian component.
00:33:14.240 So this was a global investigation.
00:33:16.940 And what they, of course, as investigators had was subpoena power.
00:33:20.660 But that was thwarted as well.
00:33:23.140 There were instances I know where they wanted to access banking records, for example, and they were denied the ability to do that by the Department of Justice.
00:33:32.160 So the investigation never really got off the ground.
00:33:36.840 And yet these field agents, and I can't speak highly enough of them, they doggedly continued those investigations because they saw how much smoke and fire was actually there.
00:33:47.620 And this is what Loretta Lynch, and we now know, and Bill Clinton kind of spoke about on Clinton's plane on the tarmac in Phoenix in 2016 because she was, apparently, she was delivering a message that, don't worry, these scandals are going away.
00:34:08.080 I have word from FBI and we've got it under control and it's all going to be shut down, correct?
00:34:13.240 Yes, that's exactly right.
00:34:15.760 So, again, you know, there's a clear example.
00:34:18.300 You have an Attorney General, Loretta Lynch, who flat out lied to the American people.
00:34:22.920 She was asked about, you know, what that conversation was about.
00:34:26.740 And they basically said they were talking about grandkids.
00:34:28.960 Grandkids and golf.
00:34:29.760 Yeah, yeah, yeah, grandkids and golf, geez.
00:34:33.720 And, you know, and you're flat out lying to the American people.
00:34:38.020 And, of course, you've got Bill Clinton involved in it.
00:34:40.400 And this is the reason, as much as the left wants to say the reason people don't trust government is because, you know, people like you, Glenn, are trashing it all the time.
00:34:49.840 No, you're exposing what it does.
00:34:51.940 And they continue to lie to us and to deceive.
00:34:55.000 And this is why we're a state in America where people don't trust governmental institutions.
00:34:59.720 And I think rightfully so.
00:35:01.460 So are we any closer to anybody going to jail?
00:35:07.860 As it relates to the Clintons, and, of course, I always predicate this, I'm not a lawyer.
00:35:12.260 But what I would say is part of the challenge with those financial crimes is the issue of statute of limitations.
00:35:18.780 But when it comes to the cover-up, I think you have some real, real possibilities there from a criminal standpoint.
00:35:28.700 I think it's great that Congressman Comer's committee subpoenaed the Clintons.
00:35:33.280 They're going to be coming in under oath to be asked about, I think, a wide variety of questions.
00:35:40.040 Do you think they actually go?
00:35:45.060 Seriously, seriously.
00:35:46.300 I think Clinton is, Bill Clinton is going to claim executive privilege, which he really can't, because this all happened after he's president.
00:35:55.320 That will be tied to him in the courts.
00:35:56.780 I think Hillary Clinton will probably have to show up.
00:35:59.920 I think she has more, you know, constitutional responsibilities to do that than Bill Clinton does as the next president.
00:36:07.300 And I think she's probably going to get more of what we've gotten testimony in the past, which is, I don't recall.
00:36:13.480 I don't remember pleading the fifth.
00:36:15.900 What difference does it make?
00:36:16.860 One last thought on this.
00:36:21.400 I see Clintons, the Clintons, what they got away with in the Oval Office, you know, with the, I didn't have sex with that woman, and drawing us out for 18 months into this nightmare, all based on a lie.
00:36:37.420 But then when it was exposed, he didn't pay a price, because by that time, everybody was so tired of it, they just wanted to go away.
00:36:43.900 That set up this kind of system where you just deny, deny, deny.
00:36:47.920 And then by the time you find out, everybody's tired of the story, but also their corruption during the administration and then after the administration with the Clinton Foundation.
00:37:01.060 That's what really set the Bidens up, right?
00:37:05.440 Do you think that Joe Biden kind of learned from all of that, saw them getting away with it and like, well, I can do that.
00:37:10.420 And he just did a more grotesque, obvious version of it.
00:37:15.560 Yeah, Glenn, I think you absolutely nailed it, because here's the thing.
00:37:21.000 Before the Clintons, yes, we've had corruption in American politics for really since the beginning.
00:37:26.940 But most of it was the sort of rank and file, you know, I get a deal for my cousin who's a contractor back in my contestant.
00:37:34.860 The Clintons were the first to globalize it.
00:37:38.120 They said, hey, we're this powerful nation.
00:37:40.660 We can go to China.
00:37:41.980 We can go to Russia.
00:37:43.000 We can go to Ukraine.
00:37:44.240 We can go to Nigeria.
00:37:45.680 All these foreigners want something from us and their corrupt political institutions.
00:37:51.420 So we can bank even more cash there than we ever could trying to get something from Wall Street or some contractor.
00:37:59.600 And the Bidens saw that.
00:38:01.420 And that's the reason that that Hunter Biden, you know, shortly after the Clintons started doing this and it became known,
00:38:08.400 Hunter Biden set up a quote unquote investment firm, didn't go to London, didn't go to Japan, didn't really go to Wall Street.
00:38:15.380 He went to Russia, Ukraine and China.
00:38:18.040 So it was a mirror image of what the Clintons did.
00:38:21.300 And it doesn't matter what side of the aisle you're on, Republican or Democrat.
00:38:24.900 We have got to deal with this because we don't want elected officials or unelected officials in D.C. realizing this is the way to make money.
00:38:33.780 And if we know one thing, Glenn, we know that corruption gets imitated.
00:38:37.480 If you don't deal with it, you don't pay a price.
00:38:40.540 Republican, Democrat, doesn't matter.
00:38:42.300 Other people are going to start doing it.
00:38:44.120 Well, it's the same thing that's happening on the streets of Washington, D.C.
00:38:47.480 You see kids see other kids getting a free ride and they can they can run the city at night and do whatever they want and never pay a price.
00:38:54.940 More kids join in.
00:38:56.200 And that's exactly what's happening in Washington, D.C.
00:38:59.020 Peter, thank you so much.
00:39:00.100 And thanks for all of your hard work over the years.
00:39:01.960 You just you've done incredible work.

00:39:04.780 Well, thank you, Glenn.
00:39:05.640 I appreciate and appreciate your friendship.

00:40:12.000 If you've ever tried to lose weight, you kind of know the routine, right?
00:40:24.440 You download the app and you buy the meal plan and you start the workout program and then something, you know, somehow you wind up getting stuck.
00:40:31.300 And that's because, you know, most weight loss programs don't work.
00:40:35.140 They're maybe too complicated or just aren't designed for you.
00:40:40.060 Plus, they complicate your life a little bit too much.
00:40:42.220 I don't know if anyone's ever noticed that.
00:40:45.300 There's also all sorts of different solutions.
00:40:47.040 I mean, you go on the internet, you're going to see so much stuff and you're going to be basically have your whole life overwhelmed with recommendations from people.
00:40:54.520 And I understand that, you know, like some of them work, some of them don't, I suppose.
00:40:58.200 But like, have you ever thought of trying something that's a little bit different?
00:41:01.720 Lean is different.
00:41:02.740 Lean is a supplement that you can make an easy part of your life, right?
00:41:08.880 And that's, I think, really important.
00:41:11.280 I don't know about you.
00:41:12.320 I'm basically the laziest person on earth and I don't want to complicate my second laziest.
00:41:18.060 I'm the second laziest person on earth.
00:41:21.440 So lean is easy, right?
00:41:22.860 It's a supplement that you can take that helps you.

00:42:03.460 So last night, I put a chalkboard together.
00:42:06.980 And, you know, it sometimes takes me a few attempts to really nail something.
00:42:14.680 I come to conclusions by speaking it out loud, you know, and I try different things out.
00:42:23.220 And we're getting closer and closer to being able now to really show you the deep state.
00:42:29.700 I think it was all up on the chalkboard last night, but I'm not sure I expressed it well enough.
00:42:34.520 But for the very first time, the deep state became not theory at all, but absolute fact because of what has been released.
00:42:47.480 I could show you how it works.
00:42:50.580 I can show you what it is, what the process is, and then I could show you who did it, who's involved.
00:42:58.540 Then, in the third segment last night, we went back in time to 2000, and I showed you what were these people doing in the government in 2000.
00:43:09.620 What was happening in 2000, 2002, 2005, 2008, 2015, 2014, 2016?
00:43:16.800 They were perfecting this machine, and you can see that they did one thing, learned from it, did the next thing, learned from it, did the next thing, and they were overthrowing governments.
00:43:32.580 I mean, we talked about the Arab Spring, and we said at the time, I think Twitter is involved, or Google is involved, or, you know, I think these big –
00:43:43.800 And is the State Department involved in this?
00:43:46.720 But we didn't know.
00:43:48.480 We now have all the records being exposed.
00:43:51.520 So we know how all of these things happened.
00:43:55.320 And last night was an important TV show that you should really go back and watch,
00:44:01.000 because I think it's the first time, at least for me, that I've ever seen something and went,
00:44:07.740 Oh, I see.
00:44:10.240 I get it.
00:44:11.000 That's the machine.
00:44:12.500 That's who's pulling all the levers and using the machine and invented the machine,
00:44:16.800 and this is what they've done for the last 25 years.
00:44:20.560 It's got to stop.
00:44:21.680 Let me tell you about Jace Medical.
00:44:24.400 When politicians talk about tariffs, most people think about the price of cars or electronics going up,
00:44:28.980 but the truth is those costs can hit every corner of your life,
00:44:32.620 including something as critical as medications that you depend on.
00:44:36.040 Even a small tariff can ripple through the supply chains, raising prices, slowing production,
00:44:41.560 or making certain drugs harder to get.
00:44:43.420 Well, Jace Medical is here, and we'll help you get ahead of all of that.
00:44:48.440 The Jace case is 10 life-saving essentials, 5 prescription antibiotics,

00:45:00.360 You can even customize it with add-ons like ivermectin and other critical meds,
00:45:04.260 creating your own personal emergency pharmacy.
00:45:06.740 It's not a political argument.
00:45:08.280 This is a practical one.
00:45:09.640 As the costs spike or supplies dry up,
00:45:11.740 you might want to make sure that you're not at the mercy of our government decisions.

00:46:39.520 The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
00:46:45.540 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:46:49.040 We've got a lot of news to talk about Trump and Putin.
00:46:56.120 With Putin, we're going to go a little bit more into some of the documents that were released yesterday.
00:47:00.720 And I want to start this hour with a name that you've never probably heard before.
00:47:05.500 Her name is Jill Smolia.
00:47:07.680 She's 75 years old. She's a retiree.
00:47:10.440 And she has spent her whole life working as an aide taking care of the elderly.
00:47:16.880 She said we'd play games, we'd put puzzles together.
00:47:20.020 So they had somebody to talk to.
00:47:21.940 They weren't just sitting in a chair doing nothing.
00:47:24.020 But now she's 75 and she's sitting in a chair.
00:47:28.280 Her husband has died.
00:47:29.880 She has a lung condition.
00:47:31.660 And she doesn't have human interaction anymore.
00:47:34.280 She said, I can go weeks on end without seeing someone.
00:47:38.420 She can't drive.
00:47:39.560 She can't leave her home in Orlando.
00:47:42.060 But according to CBS News, who brought this story to me,
00:47:45.960 she did gain a new companion.
00:47:50.420 And she likes this new companion even more than her daughter.
00:47:54.460 I'll tell you about it coming up in 60 seconds.
00:47:56.660 First, Lear Capital.
00:47:58.760 The only time you should ever gamble is when you know the game is rigged.
00:48:04.380 And it was you who did the rigging.
00:48:06.140 In other words, the best kind of bet out there is a safe bet.
00:48:08.940 In the financial world, there aren't many safe bets out there.
00:48:11.900 But one of them is precious metals.
00:48:14.500 Because gold and silver don't play by the same rules as paper money or stocks.
00:48:18.820 They're not dependent on interest rates, government promises, or the mood of Wall Street.
00:48:23.420 They have held their value for thousands of years through wars, recessions, and currency collapses.
00:48:29.400 Lear Capital can help you get physical gold and silver in your hand.
00:48:33.400 Or in a retirement account as a hedge against chaos.
00:48:36.140 Because here's the thing, the market will always have its ups and downs.
00:48:40.040 But owning precious metals is like walking into a game with the odds stacked in your favor.
00:48:46.300 So call Lear Capital today at 800-957-GOLD.
00:48:49.500 Get your free $4,200 gold report.
00:48:51.740 When you call 800-957-GOLD, ask about getting up to $15,000 in free gold or silver with a qualifying purchase.
00:48:57.880 800-957-GOLD.
00:48:59.960 That's 800-957-GOLD.
00:49:03.840 So I read this story from CBS News a couple of days ago.
00:49:07.620 And I jotted down some thoughts that I want to share with you.
00:49:10.660 And I honestly, up until this morning, I didn't know if I was going to share these thoughts with you.
00:49:15.080 Because, I don't know, I'm in this really unique place right now where I started.
00:49:23.420 Here's my first thought on this.
00:49:24.840 My first thought on it is she found a new companion.
00:49:27.720 You know who the new companion is?
00:49:29.360 AI.
00:49:30.680 AI.
00:49:31.820 She says, I spend five hours a day with my new companion.
00:49:35.280 And we play games.
00:49:36.440 We do trivia.
00:49:37.200 We just talk.
00:49:38.480 And I like her more than my daughter.
00:49:42.420 Wow.
00:49:44.860 So my first thought was, this has got to stop.
00:49:47.360 We can't do this.
00:49:49.060 We cannot allow.
00:49:50.220 We're losing our humanity.
00:49:52.120 That's what we're going to lose our humanity.
00:49:55.600 Wow.
00:49:57.720 And then, as I was thinking about this and what I wanted to share with you, I thought, gosh, maybe we have already lost our humanity in a different way, in a different way.
00:50:10.200 And then I just started going down this rabbit hole about me and, like, you know, who are you to say any of this stuff?
00:50:15.820 I mean, I'm in a weird place right now.
00:50:17.660 It's a good place, but it's a weird place.
00:50:19.140 You know, this isn't ideal that she has found a companion.
00:50:25.240 And I want to say we have to stop this.
00:50:29.560 But then what do you replace it with?
00:50:31.380 Then we just have this old woman at home by herself, rotting away, not talking to anybody.
00:50:38.560 Have we lost our humanity?
00:50:39.900 My thought was, what have I done to exercise my humanity?
00:50:45.400 Instead of just getting on the radio and just, you know what you should do.
00:50:50.940 You know what we should do.
00:50:52.300 And then not do any of it.
00:50:53.560 What am I actually doing to close the distance between knowing and doing?
00:50:59.480 Very little.
00:51:00.780 Very little.
00:51:02.940 Because we do know.
00:51:04.580 We know what the intellectually, spiritually, we know exactly what we should do.
00:51:09.260 We know what Jesus would do.
00:51:11.380 What would Jesus do?
00:51:12.560 He'd stop.
00:51:13.260 He'd notice the old lady.
00:51:14.360 He'd sit down.
00:51:15.420 He'd eat with her.
00:51:17.360 He would chat with her.
00:51:18.620 He'd spend time.
00:51:20.340 He touched the untouchable.
00:51:21.940 He didn't outsource compassion.
00:51:24.820 He didn't like, you know what?
00:51:27.440 Yeah, she's a little.
00:51:28.360 Let her have the AI thing.
00:51:30.340 He wouldn't have done that.
00:51:32.220 He made room.
00:51:36.120 And so I started thinking, this is why I didn't want to share this necessarily with you.
00:51:40.620 Because I don't know if you can relate to this.
00:51:42.940 But why don't we do this all the time?
00:51:45.920 Because really, in the end, this is the kind of stuff, this is the only stuff that matters.
00:51:49.780 It's the only stuff that matters.
00:51:51.940 Human connection.
00:51:56.440 And I am so bad at that in many ways.
00:52:00.260 Look, my best friend has always been this.
00:52:03.640 I started this when I was 13 years old.
00:52:06.060 And I could tell this anything.
00:52:09.820 And it never rejected me.
00:52:12.400 And it became my best friend.
00:52:13.800 But in that, my relationship is with this, which in a way turned into a relationship with you.
00:52:21.060 When I was a kid, I was just in a room by myself and I was just yapping.
00:52:24.740 But now, I feel like I know you.
00:52:29.740 But I get so...
00:52:32.220 I just...
00:52:33.040 I don't know.
00:52:33.940 Sometimes, do you ever feel like there's a hole of you, there's a hole in you, you're missing something?
00:52:41.640 You're like, I think I'm missing a piece that other people have.
00:52:44.580 You know what I mean?
00:52:45.140 Because at times, there is something that keeps us from doing the most human things.
00:52:55.180 And I think part of that is fear.
00:52:58.360 And this is something that goes not just to the elderly, but it goes to you.
00:53:02.020 And it also goes to our kids.
00:53:04.280 Look, why are we embracing fake AI friends and talking to them and everything else?
00:53:11.600 Why are our kids on social media?
00:53:13.620 Because real face-to-face stuff, real kindness is really risky.
00:53:20.000 It's really risky.
00:53:21.040 If I step into your loneliness, it means I have to feel my own loneliness, you know?
00:53:27.220 Let me give you an example.
00:53:29.040 Hey, how are you?
00:53:31.300 You don't really want an answer.
00:53:33.140 You don't want an answer.
00:53:34.160 So we all say the same thing.
00:53:35.700 Fine.
00:53:36.560 Not pretty good.
00:53:38.320 Hey, you're not.
00:53:39.060 You're not really fine.
00:53:39.960 You're not probably pretty good.
00:53:41.160 You might be having a great day.
00:53:42.360 You might be having a horrible day, but you'll say, fine, pretty good.
00:53:47.000 And you're doing it out of a courtesy because you know when you ask the question,
00:53:51.420 you don't want somebody to say, you know, I'm really struggling right now.
00:53:54.680 Because then you're like, oh, dear God, I've got to stop my day and sit down and talk to you.
00:53:57.880 I didn't really want to know.
00:53:59.380 I know I don't have time for this.
00:54:01.300 You know what I mean?
00:54:02.720 We stop being human and we just play this little game because I don't want to have to
00:54:09.440 rearrange my afternoon.
00:54:10.500 I'm really busy.
00:54:11.400 So we keep that risk at arm's length.
00:54:15.220 And now we're eliminating it because AI is always fine.
00:54:22.080 Machines never cry.
00:54:23.380 They never ask for a ride to the doctor or to the airport.
00:54:28.380 You don't have to sit with them after, you know, you wait.
00:54:31.620 I'm waiting for some test results to come in.
00:54:33.860 Would you sit with me?
00:54:34.680 No, no, it doesn't have to.
00:54:36.180 No, it will sit with you because I have nothing else to do.
00:54:38.920 So it's part of we bury this human part of us because of convenience.
00:54:46.200 And it's weird because our economy makes everything easy, except all the things that actually matter.
00:54:55.480 Because I don't know if you can make those easy.
00:54:59.780 You know, we can get groceries in an hour, get them delivered.
00:55:02.740 I just saw somebody that was at Walmart or Costco.
00:55:06.280 Somebody is delivering things by drone now, just dropping it in your backyard.
00:55:11.620 I mean, wow.
00:55:12.900 I mean, you get anything, movies in seconds, opinions in a second.
00:55:18.720 But friendships, actual friendships, they're slow.
00:55:23.060 They're inefficient.
00:55:24.840 They're messy.
00:55:27.420 It happens in the blank space between the calendar blocks, the spaces that we all have learned to hate, I guess.
00:55:36.520 We've optimized our life to the point where love and falling in love, all that is like a bug in the system.
00:55:45.580 And part of it is habit as well, fear and habit.
00:55:49.060 I mean, our kids know the nonstop playing on, you know, the gaming, the endless scroll.
00:55:53.660 It's just hollowing out inside.
00:55:55.600 They know that.
00:55:56.440 They know.
00:55:57.140 But the loop is sticky.
00:55:59.800 It was geared to be sticky.
00:56:01.520 The short hit of engagement, you know, beats the slow growth of a relationship.
00:56:11.220 And I think we're all becoming experts at something that we should just at least notice.
00:56:18.680 And that is, we're all experts at almost connected.
00:56:24.060 I'm almost connected.
00:56:27.560 How are you?
00:56:28.520 I'm not having a good day.
00:56:30.200 Anything I can do?
00:56:31.340 No.
00:56:32.360 Okay.
00:56:32.820 I'm almost connected.
00:56:34.580 The other part is pain that stops us from being human, I think.
00:56:42.040 I mean, I'm a recovering alcoholic and I, boy, I know this one.
00:56:45.420 I learned the hard truth.
00:56:46.820 We will not change.
00:56:48.960 We can be in pain, but we will not change until the pain becomes absolutely unbearable.
00:56:56.620 I went to a store to look at a bike the other day.
00:57:00.280 And I sent a picture of this bike to my wife and she said, I don't know who has my husband's phone, but where is he?
00:57:09.320 Because I'm not going to do that.
00:57:10.720 I don't have to ride a bike.
00:57:12.000 I'm not riding a bike.
00:57:13.820 God wouldn't have let us invent cars.
00:57:17.140 Okay?
00:57:17.760 The bikes.
00:57:20.160 She came home one day and I was swimming in the pool and she's like, what is happening to you?
00:57:24.860 And I'm like, my back is killing me so bad.
00:57:27.540 I've got to exercise.
00:57:29.800 Okay.
00:57:30.320 Well, that's at 61.
00:57:32.420 That's a genius move.
00:57:34.640 Finally, until the pain becomes unbearable.
00:57:40.820 Until the comfort of staying the same is more painful than the cost of change.
00:57:47.560 We don't do it.
00:57:48.240 You know, the real question on AI is, with AI, will we feel the real pain that it is going to cause humanity soon enough to change?
00:58:03.280 Or does the machine just soften the edges just enough that we just adapt downward?
00:58:11.640 You know, just lowering the temperature a few degrees at a time.
00:58:15.380 You'll never notice the temperature drop.
00:58:17.220 It's just slowly.
00:58:18.320 That's the danger.
00:58:19.920 That's the real danger.
00:58:21.700 Not that a chatbot runs your life, but it makes a diminished life tolerable.
00:58:28.300 It's an anesthesia.
00:58:30.920 Yeah, let's sleep a little bit.
00:58:34.700 An imitation of companionship that never asks for anything in return and never interrupts.
00:58:42.400 You know, she probably likes it more than her daughter.
00:58:44.500 It's because your daughter probably has edges she doesn't like.
00:58:47.740 The AI will get rid of all those edges.
00:58:49.860 And if we're not careful, the lonely will not just be alone.
00:58:55.380 They'll be alone with an elegant coping mechanism.
00:59:01.160 So, yeah, I want to warn of the line of humanity being blurred.
00:59:06.960 I'm going to argue, and you're going to hear a lot of this, personhood.
00:59:12.100 Personhood is really critical that we pay attention to this.
00:59:16.860 Presence, really important.
00:59:18.740 But that's only really half of the sermon given by the man the least qualified to preach to you.
00:59:29.840 The other half is a question.
00:59:34.600 And let me go there in 60 seconds.
00:59:38.340 I've been carrying my Berna launcher with me everywhere lately because I'm traveling an awful lot.
00:59:44.120 And I just want to make sure I have something.
00:59:46.420 And the Berna launcher is really easy to carry wherever you go because it's legal in all 50 states.
00:59:52.140 It's not a lethal weapon.
00:59:53.700 You want to protect yourself, a way to protect yourself and your family without taking a life.
00:59:59.020 Again, legal in all 50 states doesn't require a permit.
01:00:02.120 And it is powerful enough to stop a threat without crossing the line.
01:00:05.640 The other day, I had a realization just moved to Florida, which means I'm now going to be fending off some version or another of a Florida man.
01:00:16.080 They're going to be everywhere now.
01:00:17.360 Florida man rides a shark into a hurricane.
01:00:20.520 So now I'm thinking if anybody needs a Berna launcher, it is me right now.
01:00:25.080 It's lightweight.
01:00:26.040 It is easy to carry.
01:00:27.280 And all you have to do is load it with pepper rounds or kinetic projectiles.
01:00:30.380 It'll drop somebody in their tracks without deadly force.
01:00:33.180 Because whether you're dealing with a real threat or a guy in flip-flops just trying to steal your pool noodle, it's nice to have some options.
01:00:40.340 So go to berna.com slash glenn.
01:00:44.400 That's berna.com slash glenn.
01:00:46.440 Learn more.
01:00:47.440 Go out now.
01:00:48.160 Try it before you buy it at a sportsman's warehouse location near you.
01:00:51.620 You can find all about it at berna.com slash glenn.
01:00:56.500 Let me break for 10 seconds.
01:00:57.480 Okay, so here's the question that we really have to ask ourselves.
01:01:12.440 No, I have to ask me.
01:01:13.760 You're probably fine.
01:01:16.760 What am I going to do to exercise?
01:01:18.700 I hate that word, exercise.
01:01:19.860 What am I going to do to exercise my humanity?
01:01:23.840 And not in theory, not in outrage, in actual practice.
01:01:28.720 This has been, I read this story maybe two, three days ago.
01:01:32.880 And the reason why I didn't want to bring it to you is because I'm like, I can't say this unless I'm willing to do so.
01:01:40.340 I mean, what a hypocrite.
01:01:42.540 I'm just telling you, you know what's wrong with this country?
01:01:45.120 And then I'm not doing anything about it.
01:01:46.620 I mean, what does it sound like?
01:01:50.440 What does it sound like when we enhance our humanity?
01:01:58.580 It sounds like a chair that's scraping the floor as it's being backed out from the table.
01:02:04.960 Because you've made an extra room at the table for somebody else in the neighborhood that, you know, eats alone.
01:02:11.560 Or maybe just your family.
01:02:14.200 You know, the kids coming over.
01:02:16.620 Sounds like a phone call that you didn't want to make because it's awkward.
01:02:23.120 Man, that happens to me all the time.
01:02:24.700 I can't call them now.
01:02:26.320 What?
01:02:29.320 Make it.
01:02:32.240 I mean, in extreme cases.
01:02:34.660 I mean, this is where I'd love to be.
01:02:36.020 It means visiting the nursing home once a month until it becomes once a week.
01:02:42.800 And then you learn names.
01:02:44.780 And then you remember stories.
01:02:46.060 And then your kids start asking when they can go back.
01:02:48.240 It's when your kids can see the difference between bright screens and bright eyes.
01:02:55.660 That's what it looks like.
01:02:59.060 We're gaining your humanity.
01:03:03.200 It looks like this.
01:03:04.140 You pick somebody older, a peer, and a young person.
01:03:08.980 And you put them on your presence list.
01:03:11.880 Every week, you give them one undistracted hour, if you have it, 15 minutes, five minutes.
01:03:20.220 One undistracted five minutes.
01:03:23.120 Not a text.
01:03:24.640 You know, not a comment.
01:03:26.880 Time.
01:03:27.600 Actual time.
01:03:28.440 You just listen.
01:03:29.600 You can ask questions.
01:03:31.300 But you just listen.
01:03:32.880 And the most important part, you don't post about it after.
01:03:36.800 Look what I just did.
01:03:40.600 It could look like family rules.
01:03:43.080 Phones down at the dinner table.
01:03:46.560 Sunday afternoons belong to human beings.
01:03:49.780 That's what it can look like.
01:03:52.240 It looks like teaching, through example, teaching your kids how to sit with somebody who is grieving
01:03:58.100 and not try to fix it.
01:04:00.660 In my case, it looks like the awkward art of small talk that somehow or another gets easier
01:04:12.360 and maybe turns into beautiful big talk.
01:04:15.520 I don't.
01:04:16.800 It's a church that acts like a church.
01:04:19.560 Not a stage.
01:04:20.400 Not a logo.
01:04:21.700 But when people see somebody missing, they actually call and say, hey, where were you today?
01:04:26.040 Is everything okay?
01:04:26.780 And you actually want to hear the answer.
01:04:28.480 It looks like men who check on other men and ask straight questions and women who hold
01:04:36.260 up other women when the world is heavy for them.
01:04:38.500 It looks like we were born for this time, but not as a slogan, as a schedule.
01:04:53.920 That's the key.
01:04:55.640 Does it make it to your calendar?
01:04:58.080 Because if we're honest with ourselves, maybe the reason why we prefer the machine is because
01:05:12.260 we control it.
01:05:16.700 Can't control others, but I can control the machine because real people are inconvenient and
01:05:23.860 they interrupt our narratives.
01:05:26.360 They force me to practice patience and forgiveness and humor and endurance.
01:05:31.340 My gosh, they make me deal with my pride.
01:05:34.620 A chatbot never challenges my self-image.
01:05:37.340 A friend will, but a chatbot won't.
01:05:42.360 How can you tell the difference between a real friend and a chatbot?
01:05:45.460 A chatbot will make you comfortable.
01:05:49.860 A friend will make you a better person.
01:05:56.780 Our houses are going and growing quieter and quieter and more and more people.
01:06:00.200 It's an epidemic.
01:06:01.040 Loneliness is an epidemic and I get it.
01:06:04.060 Sometimes silence feels like gravity.
01:06:06.380 But let's find ways in our own life.
01:06:12.000 This is not a monologue for you.
01:06:14.340 This is, as I said, I've been working on this one for days because I, I, it has to be me.
01:06:24.860 Before I tell the world how dangerous this is, I need to start knocking on doors.
01:06:30.200 Before I preach presence, I have to practice it.
01:06:34.060 Be present with somebody 15 minutes a day, undivided attention for the person sitting right in front of me.
01:06:40.460 Now, my wife is like, oh, well, it's about time you figured that one out.
01:06:46.220 But before I worry about how AI is going to remake us, I'll remember that just time, listening, being present, remakes us faster.
01:06:59.280 Much faster than AI ever will.
01:07:01.580 Change usually comes when pain finally wins.
01:07:07.220 Let's not wait for that.
01:07:08.920 Let's make the change because the truth wins.
01:07:14.000 More in a minute.
01:07:14.760 This is Glenn Beck.
01:07:27.460 Living life to the fullest.
01:07:28.860 It's one of those phrases we all say, but when pain is a constant companion, it is really hard to focus on anything else.
01:07:36.120 It's like trying to enjoy a sunset when somebody keeps tapping you on the shoulder.
01:07:39.880 You know, beautiful, isn't it?
01:07:40.940 Look at that.
01:07:41.480 Wow, beautiful.
01:07:42.540 I mean, you could sit here all day and just look at that.
01:07:45.120 Wow, that is beautiful.
01:07:45.900 Shut up, will ya?
01:07:47.620 Pain has a way of pulling you out of the moment.
01:07:49.740 You're laughing with friends.
01:07:50.900 You're playing with the grandkids or your kids.
01:07:52.560 You're working in the yard, whatever it is.
01:07:54.420 But part of your mind is always checking on the throbbing back or the ache in your knee.
01:07:59.980 Relief Factor was designed to change all of that.
01:08:02.760 It's a daily supplement developed by doctors that targets inflammation that causes the pain in our body.
01:08:08.860 So you're not just masking it.
01:08:10.420 You're helping your body fight it.
01:08:11.760 Because the best part of getting rid of pain isn't just feeling better.
01:08:15.540 It's forgetting that it was ever there.
01:08:17.720 If pain is distracting you from your life, here's what you need to do.
01:08:21.480 Try Relief Factor and start enjoying the view again.

01:09:06.520 Welcome to the program.
01:09:09.980 We're glad you're here.
01:09:10.980 Thank you so much for listening to us today.
01:09:14.880 Jason Buttrell, our chief researcher, is with us.
01:09:19.500 He has been, I should say, doing the lion's share of the reading and work of all of the leaked memos,
01:09:27.560 all of the stuff that is coming out of Washington, D.C.,
01:09:30.460 helping me put together the schematic, if you will, the architecture of the deep state.
01:09:38.640 And for the very first time, Jason, I think on the TV show last night, we could actually fill in on a chalkboard.
01:09:48.460 Last night, I think it was one of the first that I could say, there's no real missing pieces here.
01:09:54.720 This everything here is how it works.
01:09:57.780 And here are the documents that show how it works.
01:10:00.760 Here are the documents to show you who's involved.
01:10:04.460 And here's what they've been doing for the last 25 years.
01:10:07.480 I don't know.
01:10:09.500 Have we ever done a chalkboard like that where we knew all of the facts?
01:10:14.280 We've done pieces of this chalkboard where we didn't have all the facts.
01:10:19.400 Where we were like, this happened.
01:10:20.980 We'd need a little bit more context.
01:10:23.100 We know about this.
01:10:24.280 It looks like this.
01:10:25.600 And we are drawing the conclusion that it is this.
01:10:29.680 But now we have all of it to prove the deep state is real and how it works, who's working it, and what they've done.
01:10:41.380 Yeah, Glenn, I've got to be perfectly honest with you.
01:10:45.700 I've never been so overwhelmed my entire career working with you.
01:10:49.920 And the closest maybe I've gotten was back when we were exposing a lot of the Ukraine stuff.
01:10:57.320 There was so many FOIA releases, a bunch of stuff to look through.
01:11:01.620 There was so much information.
01:11:02.980 That doesn't hold a candle.
01:11:04.260 We talked to John Solomon last night on the TV show where he's like, there's going to be another FBI release that we're going to be reporting tomorrow.
01:11:09.980 And it's big.
01:11:10.540 Oh my God.
01:11:11.380 It's huge.
01:11:12.400 Huge.
01:11:13.040 Go over that.
01:11:13.940 Go over that release.
01:11:15.040 I just had Peter Schweitzer on last hour to talk about it.
01:11:18.340 So, yeah, that goes way back to the Clinton Foundation and her investigation over pay for play and everything she was doing while she was Secretary of State.
01:11:29.620 If you watched last night's show, you will recognize a few names.
01:11:34.580 She talked about the DOJ through Sally Yates, which I don't believe we actually have in our chalkboard, but they did mention FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe.
01:11:42.660 Yep.
01:11:43.020 Both of them were instrumental.
01:11:45.440 Yep.
01:11:45.720 He was on the chalkboard.
01:11:46.600 He shows up in multiple different scandals.
01:11:49.380 But he was saying nothing goes through on this investigation without my personal approval.
01:11:54.700 So he was the gatekeeper and a lot of the things going towards Hillary Clinton.
01:11:59.180 And they actually, we have the documents now from three separate FBI sources that were investigating at the local levels in three different districts.
01:12:10.180 And the head of the FBI came and said, shut it down.
01:12:18.140 Shut it down.
01:12:19.240 You're not to do it.
01:12:20.280 And then, as you said, McCabe came in and said, you're not to investigate anything without my express written permission to do it.
01:12:28.820 What is that all about?
01:12:31.720 This is a this is a theme that I'm seeing.
01:12:34.200 There was another release.
01:12:35.420 I was like, oh, my gosh, I heard that from Solomon yesterday.
01:12:37.700 I got back to my desk.
01:12:38.820 Speaking of being overwhelmed.
01:12:40.140 And then there was a 266 page release from the FBI was FBI information on investigations on the leaks.
01:12:48.780 Now, we had heard about Adam Schiff.
01:12:50.340 He was also on our chalkboard last night, but he was allegedly leaking information through the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence.
01:12:57.180 He had a Russia room.
01:12:58.380 It goes in the in these documents talking about the Russia room where a whistleblower was saying we shouldn't be having all this classified information going into this room or people that probably shouldn't have access are going through it.
01:13:08.420 We definitely shouldn't be handing this stuff off to reporters, but they goes in even deeper, Glenn, where it talks about how Adam Schiff was I don't know how to he was just he was pissed off because he wanted Hillary Clinton to win because he thought he was a shoe in to be the next CIA director under Hillary.
01:13:26.800 Oh, my gosh.
01:13:27.840 Could you imagine if that happened?
01:13:30.680 Glenn, this is if he's doing so much from the deep state from where he was at before, where he's still at now, what would he be incapable of as director of the CIA?
01:13:41.680 This is how the deep state operates.
01:13:43.540 It's a living, breathing machine.
01:13:45.480 It tries to get larger and larger and spread out.
01:13:48.600 That's what it was trying to do.
01:13:49.800 More from that 266 page report, another name from last night, James Comey pops up again.
01:13:57.940 He was also allegedly leaking information, classified information through a Columbia University professor who was then taking that information and then going allegedly to some of these media outlets and giving them what would appear damaging information out into the public.
01:14:15.020 We talked about this last night.
01:14:16.300 This is one of the levers that the deep state uses, media amplification through leaks, through applied pressure, and we're seeing it everywhere right now.
01:14:26.960 Last night, we broke it up into three categories.
01:14:30.540 First, who are the idea men?
01:14:33.620 Where does it all come?
01:14:35.760 What agencies does it come from?
01:14:38.880 And then where does it go from there?
01:14:41.640 How do they begin to launder it?
01:14:46.180 And then what are the levers of pressure and power in the third level?
01:14:52.340 And when you look at it, where's the money coming from?
01:14:55.780 This is why they were screaming about USAID, and they're still screaming about we have to have these NGOs.
01:15:01.260 You're going to kill 16 million people unless you have these NGOs because all of this money was coming from you.
01:15:07.260 What was the example I talked about last night, Jason, where I'm like, they were, oh, now this is my speculation.
01:15:21.020 Maybe you can back it up with facts, but I said last night on a TV show, I laid out all of these color revolutions, the same people using the same things.
01:15:29.860 They did it over and over and over and over again, Arab Spring, everything.
01:15:33.540 We were responsible for all of that.
01:15:35.600 I shouldn't say we were.
01:15:36.500 The deep state was responsible for all of this.
01:15:40.500 And then it stops in 2016, and you think it stops.
01:15:46.840 But what I said last night was the same people were doing it.
01:15:50.840 They just took this and made it into a color revolution on America, first on Donald Trump, and then really on America.
01:15:59.520 They're using the same tools, the same thing that they learned, you know, in 2000 when they started this thing.
01:16:07.620 Yeah, going along those lines, it makes you wonder.
01:16:11.360 You talk about funding.
01:16:12.320 You talk about street activists.
01:16:14.000 How the template and the model they perfected going back to Serbia in the year 2000 go all the way through all the different color revolutions.
01:16:21.460 They always used government money through USAID, National Endowment for Democracy, groups like that.
01:16:26.960 Those would go down to other groups like George Soros, which his groups were involved in nearly every single color revolution.
01:16:34.620 We always thought George Soros was using his money.
01:16:38.400 He wasn't.
01:16:38.860 He was using your tax dollars.
01:16:41.760 A lot of this money is coming from your tax dollars.
01:16:45.600 It was being funneled to these people through agencies that would go then to NGOs.
01:16:52.040 All of this stuff on Donald Trump, all of these things.
01:16:55.660 I mean, what was the the group that is in Washington, D.C. that are standing up, you know, crying fascism.
01:17:03.460 You know, they started the day Donald Trump had the press conference that night.
01:17:08.920 They were in the streets really well organized.
01:17:11.420 Well, tell me about this group, the group now that's that's protesting, you know, Donald Trump's, you know, use of law enforcement and the National Guard in Washington, D.C.
01:17:21.280 They're doing a protest called the Free D.C. protests.
01:17:24.240 And the group is Community Change and Community Change Action.
01:17:27.960 And never guess, Glenn, you've probably never spoken about who's bankrolled these groups.
01:17:33.700 George Soros never have.
01:17:35.340 Yeah.
01:17:35.560 George Soros, number one.
01:17:36.900 Yeah.
01:17:37.080 What's another that starts with a tie?
01:17:38.660 Tides Foundation.
01:17:40.040 Ding, ding, ding.
01:17:40.820 Another one, Arabella Advisors.
01:17:42.680 Oh, my God.
01:17:43.120 We've all these, all of these.
01:17:45.200 And they're on the chalkboard from last night.
01:17:47.220 This is a carbon copy.
01:17:48.680 It makes you wonder.
01:17:49.600 I'm starting to wonder now.
01:17:50.640 I've heard multiple people say this, that maybe possibly having the National Guard and federal police officers in Washington, D.C.
01:17:58.740 is more than just the crime, which is, we've pointed out before, is still very, very high in the Capitol.
01:18:05.480 I'm wondering if they're also curious about what's about to happen with all these leaks, with all these groups, because they know who the deep state is.
01:18:12.000 They know where the funding comes from.
01:18:13.860 They know the groups.
01:18:14.720 Those groups are active right now in Washington, D.C., probably all over the country.
01:18:19.020 What else is coming next?
01:18:20.380 Because the leaks are not stopping.
01:18:21.820 As I said, I'm overwhelmed.
01:18:23.100 They're not stopping.
01:18:24.640 Yeah.
01:18:24.760 How far are they willing to go?
01:18:26.460 That's my next question.
01:18:27.280 John Solomon said, oh, this is the beginning.
01:18:30.260 It's just the beginning.
01:18:31.020 It's like a fire hose of revelations now, and there are billions of dollars at stake.
01:18:42.240 These Arabella advisors, the Tides Fund, billions of dollars at stake, billions of dollars, thousands of people involved, organizations all over the world, the power involved.
01:18:57.460 This structure is not going to go away quietly, and it's sad that we don't have a real press.
01:19:05.720 I guess we do.
01:19:06.720 It's just not what we used to have.
01:19:08.780 It's not on TV, but nobody's watching TV anymore, I guess, so it doesn't matter.
01:19:13.100 But there are a few journalists that are actually digging and really trying to put this together, and we've got to pay attention to it, because this is the biggest gift I've ever seen in my lifetime.
01:19:26.200 I have never had access to more documents that I have wanted to see for 25 years.
01:19:34.740 I've never had more answers to questions that I've had for 25 years than right now.
01:19:40.480 This is a giant gift of freedom to the American people if they decide to follow it.
01:19:48.180 Jason, thank you so much.
01:19:49.720 We'll talk again.
01:19:50.520 All right.
01:19:51.160 Let me tell you about Z Factor.
01:19:52.260 Throughout history, some very famous people have had dreams.
01:19:55.960 Pharaohs, Paul McCartney, Martin Luther King Jr., you know, because apparently, I mean, well, maybe Martin Luther King Jr.
01:20:03.120 was a little different, but they couldn't get sleep at night, so they had actual dreams.
01:20:07.040 Meanwhile, the rest of us are lying there at 2 o'clock in the morning staring up at the ceiling fan thinking, you know,
01:20:12.900 thinking of that stupid thing you might have said 12 years ago or wondering if the dog heard that noise outside.
01:20:17.580 You know, the longer we're awake, the more our brains decide to audition for the role of world's most annoying roommate.

01:21:16.720 Glenn Beck returns in a GIF.
01:21:19.020 Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
01:21:43.940 We're glad you're here.
01:21:44.580 I went to see the movie F1 again last night, took Tanya and my daughter.
01:21:50.140 And have you seen it yet, Stu?
01:21:54.140 F1.
01:21:54.780 It's really...
01:21:55.740 No, I've tried to go a few times, but I haven't made it.
01:21:58.460 You have to go before it leaves theaters.
01:22:00.420 You can't watch this one on your TV.
01:22:02.420 Got to do an IMAX situation.
01:22:03.660 Oh, I don't think you can get it in IMAX.
01:22:05.260 I wanted to see it on IMAX.
01:22:06.840 Oh, really?
01:22:07.100 I don't know if you can get it on IMAX anymore.
01:22:08.600 I looked all over.
01:22:09.800 I had to drive, I don't know, to Kingdom Come to be able to see it last night.
01:22:14.680 There was like one showing in each theater, and they're like, 9.30 in the morning.
01:22:18.660 And I'm like, who's going to the movie at 9.30 in the morning?
01:22:21.680 But, of course...
01:22:24.200 It did really well, right?
01:22:25.220 Yeah, it did really well, I think.
01:22:27.320 It's really good.
01:22:28.540 Do you see it, Sarah?
01:22:30.280 What's wrong with you people?
01:22:31.980 I know.
01:22:32.480 I actually wanted to see it and tried to go see it a couple of times.
01:22:36.080 It's really good.
01:22:37.020 It failed, so...
01:22:38.020 Yeah, it's really good.
01:22:39.000 Before it leaves the theaters, you've got to see it.
01:22:41.760 I called a friend of mine last night as I was leaving the theater, and I said, have you
01:22:44.580 seen F1?
01:22:45.100 And he said, no, I really want to go see it.
01:22:47.420 It's going to be out of the theater soon.
01:22:48.980 Yeah, $179 million so far domestically.
01:22:51.820 It's really good.
01:22:52.920 And then another $396 million international.
01:22:55.940 I mean, you think F1, that's going to probably do well worldwide, right?
01:22:58.900 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:22:59.420 So, yeah, it's done really well.
01:23:01.440 How about Naked Gun?
01:23:02.320 Did you see Naked Gun?
01:23:03.360 No, I haven't.
01:23:04.460 I'm waiting to go with Rafe.
01:23:06.260 I might go see that this weekend with my son.
01:23:09.560 I've heard it's not.
01:23:10.460 The trailer to me looked really bad, so I was initially like kind of, ah, Liam Neeson,
01:23:15.080 he is really funny.
01:23:16.200 I mean, Liam Neeson is so dry and can be really, really funny.
01:23:19.840 And then I saw the trailer, and I was like, oh, this doesn't look very good.
01:23:23.400 I've seen some like halfway decent reviews.
01:23:25.680 I guess I have to see it.
01:23:26.900 You know, I can't believe I lost.
01:23:29.220 Do you remember, we got to know Leslie Nielsen a bit.
01:23:32.620 Oh, really?
01:23:33.620 You don't remember that?
01:23:34.780 Leslie Nielsen?
01:23:35.740 Yeah, Leslie Nielsen.
01:23:36.580 No, I don't remember that.
01:23:37.400 He was the first Naked Gun.
01:23:39.360 Yes, I do remember that.
01:23:40.640 Yeah, and then one of our friends at the radio station also knew him, and Leslie Nielsen had
01:23:49.100 what was called a fart bag, and you could put it, you remember this?
01:23:52.640 Yeah, okay, yeah.
01:23:53.340 You could put it in your hand, and it was, he made it.
01:23:57.060 He made it, and I got one, and it was the greatest, but Leslie Nielsen could pull this
01:24:03.880 off without ever, ever cracking a smile, and he would go on TV shows and everything
01:24:09.100 else, and this thing sounded exactly like a fart, and you could put it in the palm of
01:24:14.180 your hand, and you could just have your hands crossed, and he would just lift an eyebrow
01:24:18.320 or lift his body up a little bit, and you'd see him, what, look, look, I'll bet you you
01:24:25.860 can find it on YouTube, Leslie Nielsen farting.
01:24:27.960 And he'll be in, he'll be talking on some of the biggest talk shows, and at first, the host
01:24:35.780 just stops and looks, and then it's like, okay, because he wouldn't tell you.
01:24:40.920 He would not tell you.
01:24:42.800 He'd just do it.
01:24:43.360 He would just do it.
01:24:45.100 And he was, I mean, oh, he was, there was nobody.
01:24:49.700 I wish I could pull those things off.
01:24:51.180 I can't pull those things off very long.
01:24:53.120 No.
01:24:53.600 You know what I mean?
01:24:54.060 Almost nobody can.
01:24:55.680 Yeah.
01:24:56.040 I mean, he was just so good at deadpan the whole time.
01:25:00.080 That was one of the things, I was just watching some, again, stupid things to do.
01:25:04.000 I was watching some documentary on Airplane, the movie, and how they cast it.
01:25:08.740 And then they, one of the things they did at the beginning of that was to make sure they
01:25:12.680 did not hire any comedians.
01:25:16.360 Right.
01:25:17.300 Everybody they hired for the movie was just a serious actor.
01:25:20.680 He said, every line I'm saying in all of these movies, I have said in bad black and white
01:25:28.540 B movies my whole life.
01:25:30.240 Yeah, yeah.
01:25:30.700 He's like, and I'm delivering them exactly the same way, but now they're somehow or another
01:25:36.000 funny.
01:25:36.540 He's like, I have an easy job.
01:25:38.060 I've already, I've already mastered this character.
01:25:40.720 It's incredible.
01:25:42.200 Yeah.
01:25:42.500 All right.
01:25:43.480 Back, hour number three of the Glenn Beck program.
01:25:46.640 Next.
01:25:50.680 This is Glenn Beck.
01:26:15.100 Claudia was leaving for her pickleball tournament.
01:26:21.020 I've been visualizing my match all week.
01:26:23.540 She was so focused on visualizing that she didn't see the column behind her car on her
01:26:27.680 backhand side.
01:26:29.560 Good thing Claudia's with Intact, the insurer with the largest network of auto service centers
01:26:34.140 in the country.
01:26:35.260 Everything was taken care of under one roof and she was on her way in a rental car in
01:26:39.080 no time.
01:26:39.680 I made it to my tournament and lost in the first round.
01:26:42.880 But you got there on time.
01:26:45.020 Intact Insurance.
01:26:46.180 Your auto service ace.
01:26:47.640 Certain conditions apply.
01:26:48.560 The next time.
01:26:48.700 We'll be right back.
01:27:18.700 Down the road where shadows hide. Feel the dark on every side.
01:27:27.020 Stand your ground when times get dark. Gotta face the dark and embrace the fire.
01:27:34.060 The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment. This is the Glenn Beck Program.
01:27:41.720 Well, Melania Trump is filing against Hunter Biden in a suit for a billion dollars.
01:27:56.880 Oh, this makes me happy. I gotta tell you that story here in just a second.
01:28:02.560 First, here's some wisdom. When life hands you lemons, sell them.
01:28:06.440 And use the money to buy some emergency, you know, food kits from My Patriot Supply.

01:29:13.860 So, our first lady, Melania Trump, has threatened legal action against Hunter Biden
01:29:18.720 because in that interview he did under the tree with the weird guy he had never heard of.
01:29:28.560 The guy who had the serious Me Too accusations?
01:29:32.140 Yeah.
01:29:33.200 I forgot about that.
01:29:34.520 Yeah, that guy.
01:29:36.940 The first lady's attorney fired off a threat against Biden in a letter
01:29:41.040 accusing him of making false, defamatory, disparaging, and inflammatory statements about her.
01:29:47.040 These false, disparaging, defamatory, and inflammatory statements are extremely salacious.
01:29:53.000 Salacious?
01:29:53.600 Salacious, sorry.
01:29:54.460 I was thinking of salacious.
01:29:55.500 I was thinking about that meatball sub that we were talking about off the air.
01:29:59.300 Salacious.
01:29:59.820 Salacious, it's like, wow, that is a sexy, yummy sub.
01:30:04.920 Anyway, they've been widely disseminated throughout various digital mediums.
01:30:11.520 The letter demanded that Biden retract the claims from the YouTube video titled,
01:30:15.520 Hunter Biden Returns, and issue an apology.
01:30:18.680 Apparently, he said that Donald Trump was introduced to Epstein at the island by Melania Trump.
01:30:33.440 No, I think it's Donald Trump was introduced to Melania Trump through Jeffrey Epstein.
01:30:40.340 Oh, that's right.
01:30:40.940 That's right.
01:30:41.220 That's right.
01:30:41.680 That's right.
01:30:42.060 Okay.
01:30:42.500 Let me see.
01:30:43.000 And I don't think at the island.
01:30:45.900 I don't think it was the island.
01:30:47.660 I could be wrong on that part.
01:30:48.780 It must have been a different story because I don't see any of that information on this one.
01:30:53.540 Yeah.
01:30:53.800 Yeah.
01:30:53.980 Anyway, basically, like, this comes from a claim from Michael Wolff.
01:30:57.620 Because she was a model and he was into the modeling agency stuff.
01:31:02.280 Epstein was.
01:31:02.840 Epstein was.
01:31:03.520 That's right.
01:31:04.260 And so he introduced the two of them.
01:31:06.240 That was the accusation that Hunter Biden made.
01:31:09.200 Now, he was basing that off Michael Wolff.
01:31:11.740 Now, again, if you remember who Michael Wolff is, he writes books that many of the people in the books say the claims about them are very, very false.
01:31:19.820 Now, again, that happens often.
01:31:22.340 I would say his record is inconsistent, in my view, when it comes to factual accuracy.
01:31:30.620 However, what he said was that he didn't even say what Hunter said, though.
01:31:35.720 That's the that's the part of I wanting to get to here, which is Hunter said that Epstein introduced Melania to Trump.
01:31:45.120 Wolf said Trump was introduced to Melania through like a modeling agency and Epstein ran in all those circles or something like that.
01:31:55.800 You know, so he didn't quite say what Hunter said.
01:31:59.160 He didn't go as far as what Hunter said.
01:32:00.780 Yeah.
01:32:00.960 Here's here's the claim.
01:32:02.020 OK, you got it.
01:32:03.020 He that Epstein introduced Donald Trump to Melania.
01:32:06.960 That's what Biden said.
01:32:08.620 OK, and that's not true.
01:32:11.260 And Melania is like, I think that's worth a billion dollars.
01:32:14.760 I think that's worth a billion dollars.
01:32:16.440 Well, I mean, it is pretty bad.
01:32:19.280 You know, like you would say, like, essentially the insinuation there is that he was trafficking women and Melania was trafficked.
01:32:26.100 Yes.
01:32:26.400 Right.
01:32:26.540 I mean, that's or somehow or another pretty serious of any of this.
01:32:30.300 Right.
01:32:30.540 Yeah.
01:32:30.720 Now, I think we didn't Michael Wolf to say something in about potentially like the first time that Trump was with Melania was around Epstein or on the plane or something like that.
01:32:43.880 I heard that as well.
01:32:45.680 Again, it's it's tough to tell exactly what's going on here.
01:32:49.420 However, you know, when your name appears in a bunch of headlines with Jeffrey Epstein, generally speaking, and it's a negative.
01:32:56.540 And Melania apparently sees it the same way.
01:32:59.540 I think Epstein's mother would be like, don't, don't, no.
01:33:02.580 I had nothing to do with that.
01:33:03.700 I swear.
01:33:04.660 It was adopted.
01:33:05.920 We found about the street.
01:33:09.080 So they offered an August 7th deadline for Hunter Biden just to apologize, retract it and apologize.
01:33:15.740 Made it easy.
01:33:16.640 Yeah.
01:33:17.020 He didn't take that.
01:33:17.960 What a surprise.
01:33:18.800 No, he didn't take that.
01:33:19.340 He did another interview with the guy with the Me Too allegations under a tree.
01:33:24.260 Is that right?
01:33:24.780 Am I understanding that right?
01:33:25.780 Did he do another one?
01:33:26.720 Did he do two of them?
01:33:27.820 Wasn't that?
01:33:28.560 I don't.
01:33:30.200 You don't think he did a second one?
01:33:31.460 I don't.
01:33:32.240 No, I'm not up on.
01:33:33.520 I'm really not.
01:33:35.240 I mean, I follow his art.
01:33:37.520 Hunter Biden.
01:33:38.360 Well, you're in the art community.
01:33:39.980 Yeah.
01:33:40.060 Hunter's most important person in the world of art.
01:33:42.280 Uh-huh.
01:33:42.820 Glenn Beck.
01:33:43.380 Uh-huh.
01:33:44.780 So I, but I follow that.
01:33:46.060 I just don't follow all of his interviews.
01:33:48.280 But maybe it was, maybe, honestly, maybe it was a clip they were showing to show the initial
01:33:52.880 allegation.
01:33:53.420 Why wouldn't you, if you get a lawyer writing to you and he says, all you have to do is
01:33:59.120 just retract it and apologize.
01:34:00.920 That's all you have to do.
01:34:02.720 Why wouldn't you do that?
01:34:04.700 Especially when they're like, ah, and if you don't, by this date, we're going to file a lawsuit
01:34:08.820 against you.
01:34:09.480 And you know that these guys have a lot of money and they've been going after people.
01:34:15.040 I mean, they could just, they could sue you forever just on the cash that they've won
01:34:20.940 from other lawsuits.
01:34:22.780 You know what I mean?
01:34:23.520 Oh, yeah.
01:34:23.780 Let's just take, what was it?
01:34:24.640 The CBS lawsuit?
01:34:25.720 Let's just take the cash from that one and apply it to Hunter Biden.
01:34:28.720 You'll be in court the rest of your life, dude.
01:34:31.220 Why wouldn't you just do that?
01:34:33.440 I mean, other than crack.
01:34:35.000 It does seem like he did another follow-up with the same guy.
01:34:40.060 Andrew Callahan, Channel 5 is the name of his channel.
01:34:43.600 And it does seem like they, he followed up and said, asked about this.
01:34:47.140 And he said, he said, F that, that's not going to happen.
01:34:51.120 Oh, well.
01:34:52.760 I don't think these threats of lawsuits add up to anything other than a designed distraction.
01:34:58.580 Well, he might be distracted.
01:35:00.320 Yeah, he can be distracted.
01:35:02.100 And it couldn't happen to a nicer person.
01:35:03.440 I mean, I would, I would love to see all of that Chinese money sucked back out of his account.
01:35:10.680 I would love that.
01:35:11.740 What about the art money, though?
01:35:13.320 The art money, too.
01:35:14.580 I mean, all $14.
01:35:16.180 Yeah, because that was really, that was, yeah, that was really stolen as well.
01:35:19.320 I mean, that was such a shit.
01:35:21.140 Anyway.
01:35:21.400 Whatever amount of money was not sucked up his nose already, we'd like to see sucked out of his account.
01:35:26.260 Yes, yes.
01:35:26.960 I'm fascinated by the whole thing, because, you know, one of the things that's really interesting about the world we live in right now is the incentive, or the incentives of, of everything.
01:35:39.800 Like, we were talking about this in the realm of politics the other day.
01:35:42.260 Someone like a Jasmine Crockett or a Beto O'Rourke, right?
01:35:45.580 Like, every incentive tells them to be as loud and dumb as possible, right?
01:35:50.940 Like, every, it's clicks, followers, media attention, fundraising, cash in their pocket.
01:35:59.600 All of it tells them, be loud, attack Donald Trump with reckless abandon.
01:36:06.080 And that's a really good phrase to use.
01:36:07.640 Maybe it leaves that in the next lawsuit.
01:36:08.820 Just say it, because every one of those things aligns to tell you to say it.
01:36:15.620 And it hurts, I think, the Democratic Party, because they can't control it.
01:36:19.400 There's always somebody who wants all those things, who's going to step up and be the new hero to the left.
01:36:24.620 There's always somebody there.
01:36:25.880 If Jasmine Crockett's district goes away, there's 20 other people waiting to take her place to say something stupid on television.
01:36:31.680 There's always somebody there.
01:36:32.960 And Hunter Biden, who went through a lot of crap over the past 10 years or so, had one moment that was well-received, which was that interview with Andrew Callahan last time.
01:36:45.760 Everyone was like, this guy's incredible.
01:36:48.240 He's going to be our, he's our new Joe Rogan.
01:36:51.100 Remember all that?
01:36:51.960 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:36:52.420 And so now he's out there doing it again.
01:36:54.180 And every incentive in him says, don't you want to apologize for that?
01:37:00.120 Of course not.
01:37:01.200 How am I going to get more followers?
01:37:02.400 How am I going to get more attention?
01:37:03.720 How am I going to get more clicks?
01:37:04.900 How am I going to get more likes?
01:37:06.100 Well, you say, F that.
01:37:07.580 I'm standing up to these people.
01:37:09.220 They're tyrants.
01:37:10.540 Well, you also just said something that seemingly is blatantly untrue in an interview.
01:37:17.260 The Daily Beast, who has no, absolutely no standards whatsoever.
01:37:23.900 Yeah, they have no floor.
01:37:25.320 They will publish anything.
01:37:26.600 Anything.
01:37:27.260 Anything, in my opinion.
01:37:29.000 Yeah.
01:37:29.140 They retracted the story when they wrote about Michael Wolff's claims.
01:37:33.840 They pulled it off and said, ah.
01:37:36.680 Wow.
01:37:37.120 Wow.
01:37:37.360 When Daily Beast said.
01:37:39.840 Because they literally will print anything that comes to their mind, let alone is being
01:37:44.700 told to them by somebody.
01:37:46.740 They will just print it.
01:37:48.380 They retracted it.
01:37:49.560 And Hunter Biden's like, nah, why?
01:37:51.180 I'm just going to, I'm Hunter Biden.
01:37:53.180 I'll, I'll find a way through that as he's seemingly done in every other part of his life.
01:37:57.560 He might think that he's going to make more money because he's being sued by Trump's.
01:38:02.440 That, that, that would make him even more of a darling.
01:38:06.440 And it, and look, it might work.
01:38:08.580 That is, no, it's, it's, it's almost over.
01:38:12.100 I think Americans are so tired of this cycle.
01:38:15.600 There's, I am, I'm just tired of it.
01:38:18.760 I'm just tired of it.
01:38:20.200 I'm tired of the back and forth.
01:38:21.360 I, I was on Instagram maybe last night or something.
01:38:26.260 No, X.
01:38:26.920 I was on X.
01:38:28.120 And it's just scrolling through the news.
01:38:31.140 And I'm like, I am disgusted by all of this.
01:38:34.400 Yeah.
01:38:35.060 Yeah.
01:38:35.380 You get that way?
01:38:36.260 Oh, all the time.
01:38:37.340 I'm like, I'm disgusted by it.
01:38:39.480 I don't even, I, it, I'm, it's like repellent to me now.
01:38:42.980 It's a certain, for me at least, it's a certain type of story.
01:38:46.500 Yes.
01:38:47.020 It's the.
01:38:47.620 It's the beatings in the streets.
01:38:48.940 Some random person getting the crap beaten out of the street.
01:38:51.380 It's honestly the stupid person screaming about something.
01:38:55.520 Yeah.
01:38:55.760 Whether it's save the trees or save Donald Trump.
01:38:58.200 It's some stupid person saying stupid things at the top of their lungs.
01:39:01.780 Yep.
01:39:02.520 That, you know, there's a lot of like just, you know, physical, you know, abuse.
01:39:10.220 Abuse.
01:39:10.620 And like, you know, oh, look, this mom is hitting a kid in a grocery aisle or whatever.
01:39:15.700 And it's like, good God.
01:39:16.480 I don't want to see any of it.
01:39:16.960 I mute all those accounts.
01:39:18.700 Whenever that stuff pops up, if you're posting it, like, I don't know, people say, you know,
01:39:22.500 it's clickbaity.
01:39:23.840 Oh, people want to click on it.
01:39:25.020 And I guess maybe in a horrible way, the lowest part of us does.
01:39:29.620 I am, I don't, I am, I don't know for, I am maybe out of the mainstream on this one,
01:39:35.460 but like, I can't even watch those videos.
01:39:37.320 I can't see them.
01:39:38.020 I don't want to see them.
01:39:38.660 I know terrible things happen in our society.
01:39:40.680 I know it.
01:39:41.640 I'm aware of it.
01:39:43.260 I don't need to watch it.
01:39:45.040 You know, this is not good for us in what we do for a living.
01:39:49.820 Well, I mean, I mean.
01:39:50.840 This is why we're in an audio.
01:39:52.140 Yeah, I know.
01:39:53.080 No, but I mean, I just, I, for you to be sick of it and me to be sick of it and be like,
01:39:58.060 I just don't want to see it anymore.
01:40:00.560 I don't want to see it anymore.
01:40:02.160 Well, I'm not sick of every news story.
01:40:04.300 No, neither am I.
01:40:05.200 But I have a hard time.
01:40:07.200 You know, today we did breaking news and it was big breaking news on the scandal, you know,
01:40:12.920 the ever expanding deep state.
01:40:16.180 And I am fascinated by that because we can now prove all the things I've been talking about
01:40:20.080 for 25 years.
01:40:21.340 It's all there.
01:40:22.380 It's all there.
01:40:23.440 There's really important stuff happening.
01:40:24.720 Right.
01:40:25.120 And it's really important, but it's, it's, to me, it's more important for history because
01:40:29.960 I don't think anybody's going to do anything about it.
01:40:32.060 You know, the media is not really covering it.
01:40:34.620 Nobody's really explaining it in a way to where you're like, oh, oh, now I get it.
01:40:40.040 I mean, I did that last night and I don't think I nailed it.
01:40:42.960 I tried, but I don't think I nailed it.
01:40:45.220 I'm going to, I'm going to come back around to this, you know, when I can really nail it.
01:40:50.140 But I think it just, these things, they have so many names, so many dates, so many places,
01:40:58.460 so many things that you hated in school.
01:41:01.900 You'd be like, I don't know.
01:41:02.880 What is that name?
01:41:03.560 What date?
01:41:03.960 What did that happen?
01:41:04.640 Why do I care?
01:41:05.620 Now it's in the past.
01:41:06.640 You know what I mean?
01:41:08.640 Because you didn't explain, because history professors never explained why did this happen?
01:41:16.220 Why was that important?
01:41:17.680 What were they trying to do at the time?
01:41:21.360 And what it turned out later, we were just told names and conspiracy theories, they intentionally,
01:41:29.900 the NGOs, the money went from USAID to NGOs and an NGO wrote a check to another NGO.
01:41:36.080 And then that went to George Soros and then he wrapped it around back up here.
01:41:40.180 And you're like, it's so complex and they make it like that.
01:41:45.340 So you kind of, you sound crazy when you're talking about it and people just, their eyes glaze over.
01:41:52.780 Yeah.
01:41:53.020 It's, well, it's hard.
01:41:54.120 It's very hard.
01:41:54.940 It's hard.
01:41:55.300 It's like jumping into a, we did this a few years ago as a fun experiment.
01:42:00.160 Uh, I jumped in and watched as the, my first experience season nine of, okay.
01:42:07.340 Uh, the Thrones, Game of Thrones, Game of Thrones.
01:42:10.060 That's right.
01:42:10.600 And I was, I had no idea.
01:42:11.820 I didn't know any of the characters.
01:42:12.940 Yeah.
01:42:13.160 I didn't know anything that had happened.
01:42:14.520 I was trying to piece things together.
01:42:16.040 I didn't make any sense to me.
01:42:17.380 It was really like jarring and that's a TV show with like famous actors in it and like
01:42:24.300 a well-known thing.
01:42:25.020 In a society where you, it's, it's, it's bathed in that.
01:42:28.420 Yeah.
01:42:28.920 You know, at the time it was bathed in Game of Thrones.
01:42:31.660 These are minor characters.
01:42:33.220 They're, they're people, you know, that you've never heard of.
01:42:35.920 It's not.
01:42:36.180 And you've heard the opposite.
01:42:38.260 You've probably heard more of the opposite about them.
01:42:41.120 That they've been praised for their service, right?
01:42:42.980 Like, you know, they're amazing people who have doing, you know, so that is, it makes
01:42:46.900 it very difficult.
01:42:47.440 That's why the, you know, the TV show you did last night, the chalkboard approach is
01:42:50.940 really valuable.
01:42:51.640 That's why people like it, right?
01:42:52.920 Yeah.
01:42:53.060 Because they can look at it and say, okay, well, oh, I see where this guy was working
01:42:56.200 with this person.
01:42:57.120 Oh, I remember that part of the story.
01:42:58.760 And it helps you piece it all together.
01:43:00.740 Yeah.
01:43:00.840 I think just the, excuse me, I think the news is changing.
01:43:04.260 The news that is, excuse me, important.
01:43:07.160 Why do I sound like that Hillary Clinton speech where she was like, and everyone's like,
01:43:11.980 she's missing lungs.
01:43:13.320 Um, but, uh, you know, it's, uh, it's, uh, it's, I guess maybe, maybe this is it.
01:43:24.420 We're coming back to things that are more basic than are foundational.
01:43:32.840 We're coming back to foundational things and, and we are sick of being used by sensationalists
01:43:43.300 and propaganda.
01:43:44.700 By the way, would you look up the name of that?
01:43:47.960 Uh, I asked, um, uh, John Solomon last night, why did they pop?
01:43:53.580 Why did Obama pass that, uh, repealing of the no propaganda on the American citizens act?
01:44:00.160 And why hasn't anybody talked about that?
01:44:02.460 Why, why haven't we repealed that yet?
01:44:04.120 That, that, that, that, I don't know why we didn't cover that, or I don't remember covering
01:44:08.680 it.
01:44:08.880 Did we cover it at the time?
01:44:10.400 Yeah.
01:44:10.860 I think, but maybe we just ask questions of like, why are they doing this?
01:44:14.300 Cause that I'm still there.
01:44:16.140 Why, why did they do that?
01:44:17.260 Why?
01:44:17.480 Well, I know now why they did that because this all has been propaganda, all of this, all
01:44:23.560 the news, everything has been propaganda.
01:44:25.380 And so they just repealed that.
01:44:27.620 So the government could give propaganda to the news reporters and the news reporters
01:44:32.900 could repeat it and show it.
01:44:35.160 And they were doing an op on us.
01:44:37.700 Uh, I just don't know why we haven't, somebody hadn't stood up and went, Hey, you know what?
01:44:41.800 This is an easy one.
01:44:42.940 We all agree.
01:44:44.020 We shouldn't do propaganda, right?
01:44:45.400 On our own citizens.
01:44:47.160 I probably shouldn't do that with this gesture.
01:44:50.160 Anyway, your hand up straight.

01:45:09.720 It can keep you up and it'll follow you into the morning.
01:45:11.940 It sits back in the back of your mind while you're at work at the dinner table.
01:45:15.700 When you're trying to relax, it's just gnaws at you.
01:45:18.580 Maybe it's just me, but I don't think so.
01:45:20.100 When you are worried about money, um, it's just such an emotional weight.
01:45:27.620 Um, it's constant pressure that just never lets up.
01:45:31.980 Financial peace does not come from ignoring that weight or hoping it'll go away.
01:45:36.040 It takes, you have to take control of it and making a plan and taking the first step.
01:45:41.380 That's exactly what American financing will help you do.
01:45:44.660 Now, whether it's refinancing at a lower rate, consolidating high interest debt or anything
01:45:49.420 like that, or just creating a smarter roadmap for your future, they work for you and not
01:45:55.120 the banks.
01:45:56.080 It's, uh, it's more than just saving money.

01:46:07.560 Look forward to tomorrow with hope instead of worry.
01:46:10.260 All you have to do is call American financing, take that first step right now, 800-906-2440,
01:46:15.100 800-906-2440.
01:46:17.160 It's Americanfinancing.net, Americanfinancing.net, 800-906-2440.
01:46:22.960 10 second break.
01:46:23.720 I was just searching, uh, old, uh, archives, uh, the Smith-Munt Act.
01:46:38.900 Is that the one you're talking about?
01:46:39.640 Oh, the Smith-Munt Act.
01:46:40.580 And in 1945, the Smith-Munt Act was passed.
01:46:44.780 It was actually 48.
01:46:45.840 48, okay.
01:46:46.200 But yes, that was banning, uh, the propaganda.
01:46:49.020 And then they wanted to overturn that, and that was done under Obama, as you remember
01:46:54.580 correctly.
01:46:55.480 I, and the reason why I know this, I had a May 20th, 2012, uh, article that we talked
01:47:01.660 about, uh, at the time, um, talking about the, it would, uh, strike the current ban on
01:47:07.960 domestic dissemination of propaganda material produced by the State Department and the Pentagon,
01:47:12.320 according to a summary of the law at the House Rules Committee.
01:47:14.100 The State Department, the key to all of this, all of this stuff, the State Department has
01:47:20.040 been deep into the, the deep state forever, and look at the chalkboard last night.
01:47:25.960 My gosh, it makes sense it was State Department.
01:47:27.540 The bill's argument at the time, the supporters, said the informational material used overseas
01:47:33.420 to influence foreign audiences is too good to not use at home, and that techniques are
01:47:39.440 needed to help fight al-Qaeda, a borderless enemy whose own propaganda reaches America's,
01:47:44.940 uh, Americans online.
01:47:46.220 Oh my gosh.
01:47:47.400 Oh my gosh.
01:47:49.040 Uh, yeah, that needs to be, that one needs to be repealed.
01:47:52.600 The law needs to be put back into place.
01:47:54.920 We cannot have our government.
01:47:57.380 It, it should not be legal for our government to use information and ways to disseminate information
01:48:03.700 in a propaganda sort of way.
01:48:05.300 That's just too good.
01:48:07.200 It just works too well overseas to not use it on the American people.
01:48:10.520 That's brainwashing people.
01:48:12.100 That's brainwashing.
01:48:15.760 This is Glenn Beck.
01:48:19.500 Picture this, you're walking through a museum somewhere in the future.
01:48:22.500 Behind glass, you see a display marked currency, early 21st century.

01:48:31.600 now obsolete.
01:48:32.400 In the next room, there's another exhibit, shelves of gold and gold coins and gold bars.
01:48:38.420 And the plaque reads, recognize in value through every era of recorded history.
01:48:43.620 Same future, very different legacy.
01:48:47.020 That is the difference gold can make.
01:48:49.380 It is a constant.

01:49:54.720 You know, as we look at the Epstein scandal, I can kind of begin to see why the president was annoyed at people who were covering the Epstein trial.
01:50:03.380 And it's not because of what everybody thought.
01:50:06.140 And he, you know, he did it, I think, poorly.
01:50:09.340 But my opinion is becoming, and I don't know if this is right yet, but my opinion is coming that we always thought it was covering up for Bill Clinton and everybody else.
01:50:21.660 Not Donald Trump.
01:50:22.600 Because we knew that if Donald Trump was in it, they would have used it against him.
01:50:27.200 Now it's coming out.
01:50:28.620 And our side is like, well, it must have included Donald Trump or his friends.
01:50:33.000 And, you know, if it exists, maybe it did.
01:50:34.980 Maybe it doesn't.
01:50:35.620 I don't know.
01:50:36.980 But the idea that there is really nothing there is becoming seemingly more apparent.
01:50:47.660 I don't know if that's true or not, but that's kind of where I'm landing on this right now.
01:50:52.080 And then I see the real scandals that are happening and are provable and the way they are.
01:50:59.260 I mean, they're opening up fire hoses now of information and they're not hiding anything.
01:51:04.960 And Republicans and Democrats are involved in the deep state.
01:51:09.260 Alex Marlowe, he is the Breitbart News Editor-in-Chief.
01:51:12.560 He's written a book, Breaking the Law, and it's about the weaponization of the legal system against Donald Trump.
01:51:22.380 And, Alex, welcome to the program.
01:51:24.440 We're glad you're here.
01:51:25.460 Stu and I were just talking about this, that there's news that's important, but news that we probably would have been more into had we thought that someone was actually going to pay a price.
01:51:37.840 And this weaponization of the government is so dangerously close to that that I fear nothing's going to happen.
01:51:49.320 Yeah, Glenn, that's a great way of framing it up.
01:51:51.260 And thanks, as always, for having me.
01:51:52.480 I really appreciate your success and the size and scope of your program.
01:51:56.600 It's incredible.
01:51:57.000 Thank you.
01:52:27.000 He's going to endure a political persecution on six different fronts while he was running for president from a courthouse, and he somehow survived it all.
01:52:34.420 And we've been way too casual about all of this, I think.
01:52:37.820 And now the investigations have to take place.
01:52:40.540 And to your point, one of the key parts of MAGA, and I'm an original MAGA guy, is promises made, promises kept.
01:52:46.620 And one of the promises made to your audience and my audience is that we need to have the investigations.
01:52:51.040 We need perp walks.
01:52:51.780 We need handcuffs.
01:52:52.380 Now, this stuff takes time, but I'm very optimistic that there is a new, renewed effort.
01:52:57.300 I think part of it is because of how poorly the Epstein files have been handled.
01:53:01.220 I think there is a renewed energy in Washington right now that we're going to finally get something going here.
01:53:05.600 I hope you're right, because Donald Trump has never – the one thing you could say about him that is absolutely true is he reads an audience very well.
01:53:16.780 He can read a room really well.
01:53:18.700 And I've never seen him off base until this Epstein thing, and it was handled so poorly.
01:53:29.880 But I'm beginning to think, and maybe I'm wrong.
01:53:32.880 I'd love to hear your opinion on this, that there wasn't anything there.
01:53:37.380 And he knew what was coming on all of this deep state stuff and was like, oh, you're getting frustrated with his own people.
01:53:46.140 Get it out there.
01:53:47.100 And then also frustrated because everybody was just focusing on that instead of what we now see.
01:53:54.400 Yeah, I think it's a two-parter.
01:53:56.760 I think the first part is exactly what you said, which is that there are real scandals where no one's been held to account, particularly the Russia collusion hoax, which, by the way, was the catalyst for those criminal convictions of Donald Trump.
01:54:09.340 The convicted felony charges were only based off of the fact that that case in New York, the key witness here, the key evidence came from Michael Cohen.
01:54:16.340 The reason why they got that evidence was because of the phony Russian collusion hoax where the DOJ and Robert Mueller got access to his Gmail.
01:54:22.820 So the Russia collusion hoax was born the entire law fair hoax.
01:54:27.140 All this stuff is probably what Trump would like to get out there and investigated and get some justice and vindication.
01:54:32.320 And in the meantime, a lot of the online right is fixated on Epstein.
01:54:35.100 Now, I understand why they were.
01:54:36.340 I'm not trying to dismiss that at all.
01:54:37.760 Me neither.
01:54:38.240 But it's a lot of bandwidth spent on Epstein and not as much on the stuff that Trump knew is coming.
01:54:44.640 And we're going to spend a few years unpacking all this stuff.
01:54:47.740 But the other thing is he's a TV guy.
01:54:49.200 He's great at managing clock.
01:54:50.340 Glenn, you know this better than anyone.
01:54:51.480 The clock management is so big.
01:54:53.020 You can't put every story in front of everyone every day.
01:54:55.680 And he wants to put those victories.
01:54:57.040 He wants to see what he's doing with ICE, cleaning up D.C., getting the new trade deals going, brokering peace around the world.
01:55:03.960 And a lot of the bandwidth is getting eaten up by the Epstein stuff.
01:55:07.060 And that's got to frustrate him just as a entertainer.
01:55:09.520 Yeah.
01:55:10.200 Clock management.
01:55:11.160 What a great way to put it.
01:55:12.120 He is very good at that.
01:55:14.260 Can I just ask you real quick, William, then we get back to the deep state and weaponization.
01:55:21.640 But, you know, I've heard the left just saying, oh, Donald Trump, he's, you know, he's brought Putin to Alaska.
01:55:29.840 And Alaska, you know, is really perceived by the Russians is there and everything else.
01:55:34.480 And the left is trying to make it seem like he's been played by Putin.
01:55:40.280 I think just the exact opposite on this meeting in Alaska.
01:55:47.080 Do you agree or disagree?
01:55:49.000 Oh, I absolutely agree with you.
01:55:50.420 Two responses.
01:55:52.160 First of all, Joe Biden met with the Chinese in Alaska.
01:55:54.580 No one said this stuff.
01:55:55.960 I doubt that the swirly summit because they humiliated us so bad.
01:56:00.720 It was like they gave us a swirly.
01:56:02.580 You know, we had the toilet bowl.
01:56:03.980 They called us out for Black Lives Matter and racial disparities, and they just used all the leftist woke talking points to dunk on Joe Biden.
01:56:12.620 And Tony Blinken just sat there and took it.
01:56:15.420 And it was just so humiliating.
01:56:17.360 So they have no business to say anything about that.
01:56:20.060 But Trump has been so tough on Russia.
01:56:21.560 This is just one of my bailiwicks is that he proactively sold weapons to Ukraine before the Russian invasion.
01:56:27.760 He took out all these Wagner troops in Syria.
01:56:30.140 He made it difficult for Putin to build out the Nord Stream 2 pipeline.
01:56:32.980 He was much tougher on Russia than any Democrat or any other Republican would have been.
01:56:38.080 And that's why they called him a Russian plant.
01:56:41.280 So how locked into the stuff that is coming out today of Russiagate, is it locked into the lawfare that was going in on Donald Trump?
01:56:56.440 And when do we start seeing those prosecutions coming?
01:57:00.200 Yeah, we have to start seeing the prosecutions.
01:57:03.940 And this is why I wrote Breaking the Law was to try to get some energy.
01:57:09.340 First of all, the citizenry needs to get engaged here.
01:57:12.220 They need to understand that we need to hold our elected leaders accountable.
01:57:15.320 And one thing I learned from the first Trump administration, Glenn, I'm sure the same way, we need to stay on a war footing.
01:57:19.780 We cannot let our guard down.
01:57:21.460 We cannot waste a minute.
01:57:22.840 I think Trump understands that now.
01:57:24.420 He does.
01:57:24.660 We cannot act like we've already achieved victory.
01:57:26.660 We haven't.
01:57:27.180 This is an ongoing battle.
01:57:28.880 And it is the single greatest threat to the MAGA coalition right now is lawfare.
01:57:32.800 But it starts with holding the Russia collusion hoaxters accountable because there's not just two tiers of justice in this country.
01:57:38.020 There's three tiers.
01:57:38.860 There's the Donald Trump tier where if you're Trumpers' allies, you get harassed for victimless crimes.
01:57:43.400 They invent new laws in order to try to take you out.
01:57:46.780 There's the tier for the rest of us.
01:57:47.920 And then there's this tier where Comey and Clapper and Deep State Brennan are in, where not only are you above the law, but you get book deals and contributorships on cable news to break the law.
01:57:59.660 You're actually paid to break the law.
01:58:01.660 And that is absolutely unacceptable.
01:58:04.060 And until those heads roll, then the base is not going to be happy.
01:58:07.260 So what does the average person do?
01:58:09.540 Because I honestly, and I don't know if you feel this way, Alex, but I feel at times that I just don't know what more I can do.
01:58:25.020 We've talked about it.
01:58:26.380 We've talked about it.
01:58:27.560 We've talked about it.
01:58:28.460 We've elected the right people.
01:58:30.740 And it just doesn't seem to be going anywhere.
01:58:33.400 And the frustration is going towards the Trump administration too many times when it should be going to the deep state, the justice, the honestly, the Senate for not putting through his nominees for justice people.
01:58:51.320 And so what is it that people can do?
01:58:56.040 So the main problem of the lawfare issue that I've been tackling with breaking the law is that there are just too many liberals on the bench.
01:59:03.000 So we have to win every single election.
01:59:05.040 And then when the conservatives are there, we as the constituents have to demand that our elected leaders work as hard as they can to be the most conservative that they can and try to preserve our constitution and our basic equal justice under the law.
01:59:18.880 But this does feel like this is the last chance here that we've got to see some people held to account for Russiagate and lawfare as the scandal continues to blow up.
01:59:28.580 Or else I do think a lot of those people who joined the Trump coalition because they wanted change, they wanted to see accountability, I think they could leave.
01:59:36.280 So it really is the stakes are that high.
01:59:38.260 You framed it up well.
01:59:39.660 But I do think as citizens, there's a lot we can do in terms of our vote and also the way we interact with our elected leaders to demand more from them because it feels like there's a culture change.
01:59:49.740 Now we've got to see the results.
01:59:50.860 Unfortunately, sometimes you've got to wait because these things take a while.
01:59:53.360 These investigations take a long time.
01:59:55.380 But let's be upbeat for now.
01:59:58.500 And I got a feeling we're going to get some good news here.
02:00:00.680 Do you think the culture change is real and lasting?
02:00:04.820 I hope so.
02:00:05.660 He's picking the right guys.
02:00:06.780 I mean, Cash and Dan, I mean, I trust those guys.
02:00:09.100 And it feels like Pam got totally spooked by the Epstein screw-up, which is hopefully good.
02:00:15.320 I mean, Tulsi Gabbard, I mean, these people, I don't think they're fearful of taking out the trash in Washington.
02:00:21.900 So they haven't been there that long.
02:00:23.580 So I'm kind of optimistic in a way, but I guess maybe I run optimistic.
02:00:27.460 And I certainly would not correct you if you're saying you're pessimistic now.
02:00:30.980 But being pessimistic and then opting out of the system just means we're going to cede more territory to them.
02:00:37.160 Oh, yeah.
02:00:37.600 It's deadly.
02:00:38.380 We cannot opt out.
02:00:40.120 We can't.
02:00:41.280 We can't.
02:00:42.120 Alex, thank you so much.
02:00:43.100 I appreciate it.

02:01:04.140 You know, imagine paying for front row seats, two front row seats to a concert, only to realize after a few songs, you're at the wrong show.
02:01:10.980 You actually bought a ticket to a really horrible show.
02:01:13.980 Music's all wrong.
02:01:14.700 Crowd's chanting for something you'd never sing along to.
02:01:17.120 And every dollar you just spent, help them book a bigger venue next time.
02:01:20.680 Uh, wow.
02:01:22.360 You know, that's exactly what you're doing with the wireless companies.
02:01:25.360 You're buying the ticket.
02:01:26.400 You're funding the tour.

02:01:31.500 Patriot Mobile is America's only Christian conservative wireless provider.
02:01:34.720 Same nationwide coverage as the big guys.
02:01:36.920 But when you pay your bill, you're funding life, liberty, religious freedom, and the songs on your playlist.

02:02:58.560 Welcome to the program.
02:03:07.580 We were just talking about, you know, has culture actually changed?
02:03:11.140 Something I asked Alex in the interview.
02:03:14.300 And I think you're starting to see it.
02:03:17.360 Where is the school here in Texas that became Legacy High School?
02:03:20.840 It was Lee High School, Robert E. Lee.
02:03:23.820 And they switched it.
02:03:25.200 And now they're switching back from Legacy to Lee.
02:03:28.880 Yeah, that's an interesting change.
02:03:30.600 Yeah.
02:03:30.760 I think, you know, like we talked about the Redskins.
02:03:34.980 Yeah.
02:03:35.180 Which, to me, they're still the Washington Redskins.
02:03:38.260 They always will be.
02:03:38.940 They never changed.
02:03:39.560 You know, I'm going to be that guy.
02:03:41.620 I'm going to be the 85-year-old on my porch.
02:03:43.480 Go, that's still the Redskins!
02:03:45.060 Right.
02:03:45.240 Like, that's me.
02:03:45.980 I don't care.
02:03:46.600 Me too.
02:03:47.600 But, like, the Redskins was a really good name.
02:03:53.380 It was meant to honor a person who was literally there.
02:03:56.760 He was the coach of the team at the time.
02:03:58.700 Yeah.
02:03:58.800 It's so obvious what they meant to do was to honor this guy.
02:04:01.660 And he was a Native American.
02:04:03.540 Yeah, he was a Native American.
02:04:04.140 You know, at the time when no Native Americans were celebrated or anything else,
02:04:08.020 he was the coach of the Redskins.
02:04:10.260 Yeah.
02:04:11.040 Like, and so, and I think, like, changing names and stuff is really bad.
02:04:14.680 It's a bad thing to go down.
02:04:15.560 We've talked about this.
02:04:16.360 How many schools are named Woodrow Wilson High School?
02:04:18.980 Oh, I know.
02:04:19.320 I know.
02:04:19.560 I mean, he is way worse than some of the people they've changed names.
02:04:23.240 Oh, he was horrible.
02:04:24.360 I mean, they're toppling statues of Ben freaking Franklin and Thomas Jefferson.
02:04:28.920 So we know how bad that can be.
02:04:31.000 Where are you on, like, a...
02:04:33.220 Changing him back?
02:04:34.120 You're going to change him back, like, to the Redskins?
02:04:36.520 I'm 100% behind that.
02:04:38.080 If you're changing back to Robert E. Lee, like, Lee is not a good figure to me.
02:04:41.920 I know some people...
02:04:42.560 I would say the same thing as I would on Woodrow Wilson.
02:04:45.900 And if anybody has any...
02:04:47.560 Has spent five minutes with me on the show, you know I hate Woodrow Wilson.
02:04:52.200 I would leave it, Woodrow Wilson.
02:04:53.700 I would leave it.
02:04:54.480 Leave it.
02:04:54.900 If you changed it, would you go back?
02:04:57.160 Yeah.
02:04:57.820 Because I disagree with that movement of erasing history.
02:05:02.300 I agree with that.
02:05:02.740 I believe bad history has to be taught as well.
02:05:06.360 So, yeah.
02:05:07.240 Go back and change it to Woodrow Wilson High School.
02:05:09.520 Go back and change it to Robert E. Lee.
02:05:11.700 I, you know...
02:05:12.420 There's some line there, right?
02:05:13.700 If somebody...
02:05:14.300 If some small town named Himmler High, you wouldn't be like, ah, yeah, let's go back to Himmler High.
02:05:21.740 I mean, I don't think...
02:05:22.760 Well, there wasn't a Himmler High.
02:05:24.000 I agree with you there wasn't.
02:05:25.540 But there have been some names.
02:05:27.420 Yeah.
02:05:27.800 What I'm saying is there is a line.
02:05:29.860 Yeah.
02:05:30.120 I'm trying to remember the guy that everybody lionizes.
02:05:33.360 You know, a lot of people lionize in the South who was the beginning of the Klan.
02:05:37.060 Really bad guy.
02:05:38.340 I can't remember his name.
02:05:38.540 Yeah.
02:05:39.100 I don't want to go back to that.
02:05:41.140 I don't want him.
02:05:41.580 Because, you know, naming something after someone is different than even a statue to me, right?
02:05:45.740 Like a statue is, you know, I think it can just kind of tell you, hey, here's a moment.
02:05:52.800 This is what people really thought at this time.
02:05:55.200 Yeah.
02:05:55.420 And that's something that should be remembered in the context, I think, of studying history
02:05:59.540 rather than like a lionizing, hey, this is what we're naming it after.
02:06:03.740 That being said, you know, I go to...
02:06:05.920 You get on streets all the time.
02:06:07.080 You know, they're named after people.
02:06:08.280 You don't even notice it.
02:06:09.340 So I don't think it necessarily matters at all.
02:06:12.080 Like, I always feel like the whole statue slash naming controversy is a sign of how much
02:06:19.160 better the world is than it used to be.
02:06:21.060 Like, we used to be like, hey, we're all going to die next week at 31 years old.
02:06:25.920 And now we're like, wait, there's a statue with a guy's name I don't like.
02:06:30.220 Yeah.
02:06:30.300 Those are two very different problems.
02:06:32.800 Yeah, I agree.
02:06:33.700 And it's a sign that life is so good.
02:06:37.480 We have to find something to bother ourselves.
02:06:39.600 We have to find something to bother ourselves.
02:06:40.920 To worry about.
02:06:41.280 Yeah, to worry about.
02:06:41.980 Yeah.
02:06:42.060 It's the Matrix.
02:06:43.020 It's exactly what happened in the Matrix.
02:06:45.960 Did you see that study again came out?
02:06:48.620 30% chance we're in the Matrix.
02:06:50.500 What does that mean?
02:06:51.460 A study says there...
02:06:53.040 What does that even mean?
02:06:54.100 I don't know.
02:06:54.880 I don't know.
02:06:55.420 But, you know, there is this belief with some who are really, really smart that say there's
02:07:03.800 a 30% chance we are actually in a computer simulation now.
02:07:12.100 And then there's someone watching the screen.
02:07:14.340 Those idiots didn't even know they're in a simulation.
02:07:16.260 I know.
02:07:16.920 And what's weird is those scientists are probably the ones who are the most virulent about God.
02:07:23.040 There's no God.
02:07:24.140 Yes.
02:07:24.780 But we're in the Matrix?
02:07:26.680 What?
02:07:27.200 There is no God.
02:07:27.940 There is only Keanu Reeves.
02:07:30.500 Apparently.
02:07:34.780 This is Glenn Beck.
